@Patrick Lyons: Ah yes, because the taking of psycho-active substances like tea, coffee, alcohol, tobacco, marijuana and ecstasy is exactly like murder or other offences against the person. Why trust one drug and not another? If alcohol came on the market today as a new drug it would be automatically classified as a poison and a class A substance but because of sociological mores in the Western world it is instead a social lubricant. You can blether all you want out of your self-righteous fundament about the crime associated with drug use but I think that people with your much vaunted ‘modicum of intelligence’ would probably find that a lot of the crime associated with controlled drugs is actually because of the criminalisation of users and the surrender of the market to criminals. And in any event most of the crime associated with ‘drug use’ is the kind of public order and domestic violence offences that are directly connected to alcohol, perfectly legal….Modicum of intelligence my arse, knee-jerk rightwing ignorance more like…

Mrs Doyle: Are you sure, Father? There’s cocaine in it!
Father Ted: WHAT?
Mrs Doyle: Oh, no, not cocaine. God, what am I on about. No, what d’you call them. Raisins.

It is good to read about another success by the police.
