    Cameron the ‘Green’ Conservative
    February 11th, 2007 at 20:31

    Surprise, surprise, it turns out that David Cameron did smoke cannabis at school after all. Whilst this doesn’t really shock me (“Young people in recreational drug use, shock”), I do find it slightly depressing that the leader of the Conservative Party has more street cred, or whatever, than I do.

    That’s right – I’m not going to confirm or deny the rumours that I’ve never smoked Cannabis. Which is basically a politicians way of saying that I haven’t.

    Dave’s being clever too- as he’s not confirming or denying it, all of the mega-Tories can go “he’s alright, he’s not said he has done drugs, and I believe him” whilst silently weeping but still supporting him, whilst the more liberal drug fans will go “yeah, Dave’s cool, he’s on our level… I’ll vote for him, without checking any of his policies or party’s past behaviour, because he has at one time in the past done something that I have done before too”.

    I wouldn’t be surprised to see Dave campaigning for the voting age to be lowered to 12, so he can capture the full bad-ass teenager vote.

    I hope the marginally less evil parties latch on to the, er, popularity of drugs too. It’d be fun to see Gordon Brown snort a line of cocaine off of the dispatch box to try and garner some popularity for himself. And I can’t imagine that drugs are that unfamiliar to Sir Menzies Campbell either, as he was presumably around when there were opium dens on the streets of London anyway.

    Personally though, I’ve never been a big fan of drugs. Don’t get me wrong, I think that Cannabis should be legalised- and not just because I’ve got a vested interest in it being taxed. It’d make it safer as it wouldn’t be ‘cut’ with bricks, sawdust and AIDS, and it’d become a less desirable thing to do in the eyes of young people. After all, Morris Dancing is perfectly legal, and how many groups of teens do you get on street corners discreetly waving handkerchiefs and making a quiet jingling noise?
