Proceeding contribution from Caroline Lucas (Green Party) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 16 December 2010. It occurred during Adjournment debate and Backbench debate on Drugs Policy.
Drugs Policy
I apologise for tutting, but the reason why I was tutting is that I do not think that any hon. Member is suggesting that we want to give a message that drugs are okay. One of the things that hinder the debate is attributing to one another positions that we do not actually espouse. We all start from the point of saying that drugs are causing harm in society. The question is this: how do we best reduce that harm? It is fairer to accept that all of us are driving towards that aim.
