Closed Mandatory drug tests for all MPs, Lords & their staff

Closed on

We demand to have every single member of parliament, peer and their staff be screened for illegal drugs, immediately and at random intervals. This should be in place until UK drug policy is fundamentally reformed.

We believe war on drugs has be a constant and unparalleled failure. This week the Government has announced a series of new measures we believe will be ineffective at controlling the drug trade. This is the same week that it has been reported that cocaine traces have been found in the bathrooms at the Palace of Westminster.

Since the Government maintain strict drugs policies and refuse to recognise the value of regulating and taxing drugs and taking the power away from dealers and gangsters, let them be the first to prove they are innocent.
