"The government's drug advisory body is "fatally flawed" and should be
rebuilt from scratch along the lines of the Bank of England, Professor
David Nutt has declared.

Scientists advising politicians on the dangers of drugs should be as
independent as the Bank of England officials who decide interest
rates, he said."

nutt is suggesting something much more radical...a removal of power
    in an area that presently generates irrationalist emotions away 
   from politics to 'science'

His speech should be known as the 'Tory betrayal'!

He will make a few sound bites about keeping hold of imaginary red
lines, but that’s all.

The man is a coward and a fraud!
