Our Insane Drugs Laws

I read today that the husband of a BNP candidate has been arrested for smoking cannabis when he suffers from chronic arthritis.

For Christs sake havent the police got the brains and balls to do their real job, which is to arrest CRIMINALS instead of people suffering chronic pain from a medical condition.

The British drugs laws are a sick joke.

Whilst dealers, importers and junkies involved with hard drugs like heroin are growing every day, and the money made from hard drugs used to support Islamic terrorism, the police arrest a man with a chronic medical condition for possession of cannabis.

I have seen what hard drugs do to people, as I saw a brother die from heroin abuse.

I have also seen what Cannabis can do to help people in real pain.

I used to work with a group of MS sufferers including a young lad of around 23 who had severe MS.

He could not even wipe his own bum after going to the toilet, his mum used to do it for him.

After smoking a cannabis joint he could wipe his own bum - and for a little while he had his dignity and self respect back.

Yet he also faced being arrested - and that is simply unacceptable to anyone with a brain and a sense of morality.

To deny a man access to a herb that helps his medical condition that in the entire history of humanity has never killed a single human being, whilst we are in the midst of a war for oil in Afghanistan and Iraq that has killed millions, is simply evidence we live in a sick and insane society.

Any system of drugs laws that allow the state to arrest people suffering from chronic pain are not moral laws nor are they sane laws - they are the sick laws of a sick and corrupt legal system.

The BNP should not support the present drugs laws - we must pass laws to change them all.

This is because everyone, from the police to charities helping people with conditions that respond positively to cannabis, know that the drugs laws in this country are pernicious and evil.

For the BNP to support evil drugs laws passed to benefit the global drugs companies, that imprison people in severe pain, that deny sick people a medicine that helps them both physically and mentally is to abandon our core principle as a political movement - which is to put the interests of our people before the interests of the laws, ideology and demands of the present corrupt system and its profiteers like the drugs companies.

We in the BNP must pass laws to put our people first, not perpetuate the present failed drugs system.

I have blogged on this issue before - so read what we need to do here ;

I stand beside all those people in our society who are in pain, who are denied their right to choose a medicine that works for them and I stand up for the people in prison with such conditions because of idiotic drugs laws that are unworkable in practice, that reward only the criminals and the Industrial Police and Prisons Complex and that profit groups like Serco and Group4 whose profits are based on imprisoning people and who then donate to the political parties that pass the idiot drug laws.

We need a root and branch reform of the drugs laws.

Legalisation is not the answer and nor is prohibition.

We must begin to issue Licenses to those who have genuine medical conditions and who benefit from drugs like cannabis - just as they are doing all across the United States right at this moment.

The UK is the idiot brother of the United States.

Where they lead then a decade later we follow.

The US is changing its laws and moving forward the drugs debate and allowing medicinal cannabis and licenses to possess and grow cannabis to be issued to people with chronic medical conditions under the authority of their doctors - whilst the UK continues down the same idiot path of prohibition it always has done.

The BNP is not here to appeal to the present Establishment and its corporate interests.

We intend to put the interests of the British people first, not the profits of the industrial police and prison complex or the drugs companies.

That means the drugs laws will change - and for the importers and dealers and money launderers of hard drugs, then that means the death sentence.

For the junkies on hard drugs that means compulsory rehab and compulsory weekly testing and being released into society on a license that requires them to prove they are clean on an ongoing basis.

For the people with chronic medical conditions it means they can apply to be licensed by a doctor and not have to live in pain because of laws drawn up by idiots in the pockets of the drugs companies.

Any society that criminalises the sick and suffering, is sick itself.

Within a decade we could end the drugs nightmare - but in order to do that we must stop parroting the pathetic rhetoric of the other parties, we must start to put the interests of the British people first and we must be prepared to impose harsh penalties on those in our society who profit from hard drugs.

Only then will the law work.

Until then the law is sick and evil.
