It's been #timetotest in NSW for a long time. I miss Gladys and her fierce opposition to Pill Testing. But here's one thing that ACT (and soon Qld) won't miss - the hospitalisations. I chat with Hamish McD re: Drug Summit and the evolution of PT abc.net.au/news/2023-10-02/d…

A brilliant new book out by a dear friend and someone who gave this up-start wonderful advice as an up-and-comer. Check out @stephaniedowric and "Your Name is Not Anxious" ♥️💖🫶

Complain. Kvetch. Scratch your head all you want, but NSW just decriminalised drugs by another name. Fines now instead of arrests for drug possession. Many thanks to all who helped get it over the line but it’s @MarkSpeakman who deserves bravery award: smh.com.au/politics/nsw/perr… 👏

In this drug-induced (coffee) interview @joshzepps and I trawl through the different jurisdiction’s drug laws and spell out the diff between prohibition, decriminalisation, regulation and legalisation. It’s not what you think…or is it? abc.net.au/sydney/programs/a…
Tonight we’re launching our Street University app at the Opera House! Want to join us via LIVE stream and check out the crazy talent from around our centres? Head straight to streetuni.com.au/live/ and dance along!
A very last minute but generous offer for me to sit in for Bob Carr tomorrow night (Bob will still make a speech) on panel to discuss whether it’s time for Oz to legalise drugs. 400+ already coming! Come along.

We raise our young gladiators for the arena and (like our forbears) we rush to flog them when they don’t live up to our values “there are many different ­reasons why someone uses drugs” says Noffelberry theaustralian.com.au/sport/a…

Not quite yet. NSW will be dragging the chain Pill Testing for some time. However, let’s praise Gladys for ensuring that it became a hot topic. It would have smouldered a lot earlier if it wasn’t for her personal resistance to the evidence.
Replying to @mattnoffs
Presumably this will include #pilltesting…?😇

It’s been on the horizon for yonks. And should be praised. I’m sure @MarkSpeakman is encouraged by the news too.

Great piece today by @marywardy on why the damn bill is taking this long! It’s only Drug Reform! @MarkSpeakman @BradHazzard and the Premier need all the help they can get to drive this home this week. Cheer them! Make history! It’s a mere morsel of change. smh.com.au/national/nsw/comm…
