Ex-MI5 head backs calls to legalise drugs
The former head of MI5 Baroness Manningham-Buller has joined a group of MPs and peers in calling for drugs to be legalised.
Baroness Manningham-Buller believes the current war on drugs is not working and that it is time to consider decriminalising possession for small quantities.
She is part of the All Parliamentary Group on Drug Policy Reform which yesterday called on David Cameron to set up a commission to examine what would be a highly controversial move.
But one critic warned any softened stance would effectively mean “waving the white flag” on tackling drugs.
Baroness Meacher, chairwoman of the All Parliamentary Group said there were clear examples abroad showing appropriate regulation of drugs can help cut crime.
She said: "I think we need to look to the evidence. We have evidence from a lot of different countries about what works rather better than what we do in the UK.
