Health minister says on-site checking not a ‘silver bullet’ as advocates warn expected hot summer increases likelihood of harm for drug-takers
Idiots… more interested in pearl clutching than saving lives. Pathetic.
They want drug use to be dangerous because they think that being dangerous will discourage use, and that making it safer will just result in more people using.
Based on every study by neutral parties they are completely wrong, but pearl clutches don’t base their views on reality.
It’s more than that, they want cheap reasons to arrest people to justify their budgets.
It’s actually just greed, and they tell themselves they don’t have to give a shit about people who take drugs because “they’re the bad guys we said so”.
Fucking DISGUSTING.

Ha! Can’t believe I haven’t heard this one before. I’m gonna use it all week to keep my usual long whinge-y “society is fucked” rants nice and short. My girlfriend will be very pleased.

The problem with the tragedies averted is that you can’t count them. EnergyControl have been active in Spain for over two decades now, and I’m quite sure they have quietly saved lots of lifes, apart from having become the de facto source to factcheck every new drug scare from the media. Last year in an unrelated conversation with an aussie he was telling me how he felt most of Australia’s culture was copied from somewhere else as if that was a bad thing, and my point then was that the pro of that is that you can copy just the good stuff. My point stands: EnergyControl is something I think you won’t regret copying.
There is also dancesafe.org that’s been around for 25-odd years in the US too. Ever since I heard about it in the late 90s/early 2000s I thought we should totally have an org like that here in Aus too.

Why do they have their head so far up their ass compared to ACT labor
Progressive voters = progressive government. They don’t have to worry about pissing off conservatives in the ACT, because there are so few of them.
ACT is a territory, therefore can have their own/different laws that exist under the umbrella of federal/ STATE system the rest of Australia falls under

For some unknown reason the parties are swapped in NSW.
For example LNP in NSW would bring in policies that the Labor party would bring in other states, whereas the opposite is true for NSW Labor.
NSW LNP had very good policies like the electric vehicle policy, electric vehicle charging grants, they are the party of infrastructure with the westconnex and metro projects up, Parramatta light rail.
Whereas Chris Minns and Labor I’d actually compare Minns with the onion eater of all people. Very good at cancelling projects because he didn’t think of it first and provides no policies or thoughts of his own.
Wanted to cancel the metro, whilst providing nothing in replacement (only saved because the project is too far to be cancelled), too scared to do anything in regards to housing policy, no pill testing is the latest one. Cancelled the ev grants. In fact I’m not sure of anything that they’ve done through their own policies since they came in. Hopefully an one term government because they seriously lack vision.
