One of the reasons why Britain has lost its way
Why has this once proud nation lost it's way in recent years? Drugs,Crime, violence, and communities lost in drug gang wars. It's a sad development for a nation that has give so much to the world for good. Now Britain is sinking in a cesspool of drugs and violence.
Britain has a greater level of serious drug abuse than any other country in Europe, damning new figures show.
The study reveals nearly one in every hundred people of working age in this country is a drug addict, a level unmatched anywhere else on the continent.
The United Nations report showed that rates of problem abuse here are more than three times those in Holland, nearly four times levels of serious drug-taking in Germany, over twice the rates in France, and nearly double the European average.
The number of regular heavy and regular drug abusers in Britain has shot up compared to the rest of Europe over the past decade, according to the figures.
The UN report drew a powerful contrast between Britain and Sweden, a country where the government has increased penalties for drug abuse and fought a campaign to eradicate drugs entirely.
