1. I've never met anyone "against" #naloxone or #SafeConsumptionRooms. No one is "against" saving lives, bit of a shit defense to folk raising questions tbh. I for one feel we need them as gateways into proper treatment - as neither can be called or is an alternative to that
2. Coming out defensively seems to be the fall back for anyone in that field who is asked a question on it or who in some way feels challenged
What I am against is the circus it has become, & the gravy train.

3. Since the pilot that was run in Glasgow for a short while it has all become about the £. To be clear, the folk you see out there arent offering to do this all out the goodness of their hearts, £ spent already, & projected to be, is in the millions.

I stand by what I said in that Tweet and my criticism of the Home office letter and here is why...
The letter from the Minister ignored the evidence for #DCRS and was incorrect in its analysis of the experience of other countries. Nearly 10,000 people have died from heroin related deaths in England, Wales & Scotland since 2010 - this makes me angry!
