I would start with the twats that were behind the BERL drug harm index. They are self interested and thus dangerous. They are resource guarding. I would follow with a sideways ‘amputation’ of the arm they call national drug ‘intelligence’. Why? Well, hell, what on their watch has been measurably accomplished, other than a palpable belief in a bottomless pit of money while clamouring for more resources, and a selfless disregard for reality endangering not only themselves but the public at large.

So far the best we get is an attempt to redeem themselves with advertising real-estate. (so much for getting better work stories, like humping swathes of pot back to the helicopters).

Thank Gawd, the new Class D regulations legalising recreational psychoactive soft drugs is administered by the Ministry of Health. (Nov6th 2008)

That will do more to restore confidence in Police (and Health) than any MadMan can achieve.

(it remains enigmatic that NZ Police, who on one hand advertise “community policing” but are poker faced when it comes to listening to authoritative opinion and scientific evidence from ‘the community’. Case in point, National Drug Intelligence refusing point blank to as much as meet visiting Law Enforcment Against Prohibition [www.leap.cc] speaker Judge Jerry Paradis. No time for as much as a coffee, a drug in and of itself ranked more dangerous (harmful/addictive) than cannabis. To busy writing inane ‘police reports’ or surfing the net looking for the latest drug threat to postulate ‘will be invading’ the country, or fraternising with inumerable other grifters like customs and border control who mysterioulsy appear ‘in numbers’ around the “Expert Advisory Committee on Drugs” [EACD] table when ever a ‘health issue’ needs voting on. /Blair )

The Dutch city of Eindhoven has caused a stir with a plan to set up a cannabis plantation to supply marijuanaMore

This NZH item is notable for the lack of any cognition as to why it might be relevant to the massive demograph of New Zealand’ers for whom Cannabis is a familiar experience given that we passed into law the very regulations (Class D) required to supply and control soft drugs such as cannabis. /Blair
