Named today as the worst place for drugs deaths in the eu. Nearly 1,200 last year. Three times as many as England. Why is it so bad and what is the Scottish Government doing about it? |

it looks likke the problem was caused by the scottish government, and their cutbacks. Its got so bad now the jocks want westminister to jump in and declare a state of emergency, so westminister pays to sort it out.

Surely it's the best place for drug deaths if it's got the most? The worst place for drug deaths would be somewhere with none.

But yeah,it's odd. I bet there's many factors involved.

I wouldn't go as far as to say it's a shame.

Apparently the Scottish government have come up with ideas to battle the problem, but Westminster have blocked them, because the UK government have the final say so... We're part of the union, all in it together, remember... |

@ kipling - 16.07.19 - 07:19pm It's probably been increased due to alcohol prices going up , drugs probably cheaper ?? Will probably be happening elsewhere in the u.k if the government decide to increase alcohol prices .. u gotta ask do the government want increased deaths with the help of the stabbing increase.. Don't think Alcohol prices will make any difference |

@ kipling - 16.07.19 - 07:38pm Why?? If getting sloshed is becoming too pricey , then they do drugs The dregs of society that were getting sloshed and causing problems, before the price of booze went up, are still getting sloshed on booze and causing problems. It seems that a big part of the cause in the rise in deaths, is home made 'street valium'. Dealers are making it in labs, and giving it to kids to deal to other kids... |
