Drink & Drugs North Wales

The binge and excessive drinking culture

The binge and excessive drinking culture is Nationally a major source of disorder, vandalism and violent and other crimes. It must be very expensive to police the Towns and Villages of Wales to combat this. It is also a major workload and cost to the NHS.

Government Policy seems to encourage it with recent changes in the licensing laws. The major cost of drink is tax and thus the Government must weigh this income against the social and financial cost of the aftermath of the drinking culture

Class A & B drugs

We feel that this example tells us again that the legalisation and inherent reduction in the cost of Class A & B drugs WILL drive the use of these drugs up dramatically and add to an already near uncontrollable situation.

The health problems arising from such a policy will obviously be long term and very significant. The long-term health consequences of even Cannabis are only just becoming clear.

Opposed to the legalisation of drugs and the reclassification of Cannabis.

In conclusion all members of the PPP in North Wales & their Associates are totally opposed to the legalisation of drugs and the reclassification of Cannabis.

We consider that the Chief Constable’s highly publicised statements on this subject were unprofessional and seriously against the interests of the public in North Wales.

The next generation of vulnerable youngsters

We believe that the current drug problem has come about from a serious and long term lack of community policing.

The reversal of this situation can begin with the influence of the CBM’s and other agencies on the next generation of vulnerable youngsters.

Proper policing:
