Abstract

The ‘war on drugs’ has been a politically fraught issue in recent decades, with many calling for the decriminalisation of hard drugs as a partial solution. Charlie Beckett looks at Bob Ainsworth’s recent calls for decriminalisation, and investigates why he was unable to do more when he was a Labour Minister in the last government.
