And if the decision was to be taken in Edinburgh rather than London it would be a different one. Doesn’t matter if it’s the right or wrong decision. The Scottish Parliament would go in a different direction on this issue.
But instead we are tied to the ‘just say no’ brigade in the Tory party. We have them in Scotland but they are a minority. Unfortunately the numbers in England mean they are in power in the UK and the Scottish Parliament is powerless on this issue.

You shouldn’t flag it up if you aren’t confident about your premise. You’ve got a lot of talk but not a lot of proof.

Criminal law in Scotland has changed masssively over recent years, and likewise in the rest of the UK. The recent guidance on the presumption of avoiding short sentences has been trialled in Scotland and looks successful. England and Wales look like adopting it.

It is getting a lengthy list now C but how about acknowledging that Drug and Alcohol Partnerships spread around the country are the critical element in drug treatment services?
