SE16 3LN Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 3 hours ago, Cade said: There was no thread because nobody could be ersed with another SNP BAD slanging match thread. OP has had an absolute shocker. May as well try to blame the SNP for the huge rise in asbestos deaths in the over 50's. The rise in drugs deaths is attributable to many things. Most are in the over 35 age group, long term addicts who's bodies are finally giving out after decades of abuse. The totally unregulated "legal" highs are partly to blame. Just because they are not explicitly banned does not mean they are safe. The sharp rise in quality of the traditional banned drugs may also be to blame. Addicts never know how strong each batch they purchase is going to be until they take it. Addicts are taking multiple different types of drugs these days too, adding more risk with each different drug they take. If you DO want to get political, we could point out that the SNP tried to establish safe injecting rooms but were blocked by the Home Office. Also outwith the SNP's control is the short dosing laws, which punish people that miss GP appointments by reducing their dose of methadone or other prescribed drug susbstitute. They then go back on the actual drugs. The effects of austerity cannot be ignored either. People are suffering and dying due to a reduction in availability of services, from follow-up healthcare to universal credit. Until drugs are legalised and quality controlled by government, the quality of drugs will vary wildly, criminal gangs will continue to dominate and people will keep dying. Why would you use Asbestos as an example? There are safe places to use drugs all over the UK, mainly chemists and doctors surgeries. The SNP made it political by demanding, through the press, that Westminster legislate on this. If you do that they will come back to bite you on the arse. Yes but much else can be done in the meantime. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whilst true regarding de-criminalising or legalising drugs, it doesn't stop the Scottish Government from directing Police Scotland to prioritise everything over personal drug use/low level dealers and at the same time providing additional funding for drug abuse charities that can then be used to fund clean rooms on top of addiction help and advice.

Yeah, it's a totally nonsense made-up argument. The truth is drug deaths have been rising at a fast rate in the last 3 or 4 years. 2017 had the highest death rate ever (until last years) and that was before any impact from the minimum pricing. IMO it's mainly to do with poly-substance abuse with benzodiazepines. It's become way more prevalent and the streets are flooded with them, absolutely flooded. That's the real issue here. Not really sure who is to blame and I don't think there's a solid answer, however the Scottish mentality doesn't help, and the restrictions imposed by Westminster don't either.

Boris Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 4 minutes ago, Lord BJ said: I think there are probably a few factors that Scotland contributes to increased drug use, over and above the usual. People will laugh but the climate and day light allowances are a massive contributing factor. It creates drinking and drug cultures because what else there to do of evening? You can’t do much outside simply because of weather and lack of day light Whilst simple things such as reduced viatamin d impacts people’s mood in general. It’s also by in large quite a remote country with a poor infrastructure. This contributes to feelings of isolation and the likes. Scots are, in general, are quite dour natured and it’s understanable that people look for relief from that. It’s not unique Scotland you see the phenomenon occur across the world. Undoubtably a lot more complex issues than that but the shitty climate and short days are a underlying issue. SAD Fair points. A shite climate compounded by a presbyterian societal hangover and poor infrastructure. Throw in post industrial malaise and alienation of the masses and you may be on to something!* *sounds like I'm being glib, but I amn't, honest!

Pans Jambo Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 (edited) Do we really even know what the deaths are from? Overdosing? Drug poisoning due to it being cut with other dodgy substances? Long periods of abuse and their bodies have gave up? Other diseases (HIV, Hepatitis etc. due to sharing dirty needles)? Extreme poverty so not eating properly etc. & still injecting? Getting addicted whilst in prison and then carrying on when released (Prisons are awash with drugs)? Old age addicts? Or do we think the reason theres addicts in Scotland is because: Boredom and unemployment so they start taking drugs? Cider is now too expensive but a bag of smack is cheap as in comparison (moving from alcohol addiction to drug addiction)? They were simply "Born a junkie"? The effin weather? The effin SNP? The shitey Scotland football team? Or is it in fact all of the above and much much more? Its a societal problem that cannot be treated as simply a political or a law issue. IMO, this is similar to when Glasgow was the "murder" capital of Europe. The Scottish government decided to treat it as a disease and got various agencies involved (not just the Police, Courts and prisons). This worked and they are now seeing the benefits of this approach. A similar approach needs to happen for this issue however; it IS fair to say the UK Government needs to give the Scottish parliament the tools to do this. Thats not blame, thats just a fact. Devolve whats required for Scotland to do what it needs. Its obviously a very different issue up here and so needs a different approach. Slagging off the SNP for this is the same as blaming them for the piss weather in Scotland. Futile.

Craig Gordons Gloves Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 Scotland has a drug problem for a variety of reasons, many of which have been mentioned in other posts. As far as i can see, there is a correlation between lack of opportunity, lack of a community/social structure, poverty which, along with other factors contribute to an overall lack of hope. In turn, people turn to drugs as a means of escape and the cycle continues, the more drugs you take, the less opportunity you have, the more likely you are to experience poverty and the less hope you have.

Салатные палочки Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 I'll wager the majority of the deaths are down to the absolutely deadly street diazepam that's doing the rounds. Cheap as chips and up to ten times stronger depending on the batch. Meaning that experienced users are more likely to neck their usual amount unaware of the strength until it's too late.
