Who'd have thought that our founder Professor David Nutt (@ProfDavidNutt) would ever make it to TikTok?!?

Really fantastic work Davina, you nailed the Bristolian pronunciation of #Psilocybin

It's always refreshing to listen to a genuinely impartial interviewer @EddieNestorMBE discussing drug policy. To hear our CEO - David Badcock @BadcockDavid discuss the Government's new '10 Year Drug Strategy', tune in at 39:30 mins.

The BPNA recently produced guidance on cannabis medicines for children with epilepsy. @ukmccs & @Drug_Science fundamentally disagree it. Read our critique which provides commentary, evidence and further crucial information.

@Drug_Science Project Twenty21 continues to build compelling real world evidence to prove the effectiveness of medical cannabis in the U.K. https://t.co/x1RGNbEXdY

[Drug Science @Drug_Science]

According to MP @CrispinBlunt, in May 2021, the Prime Minister approved the rescheduling of psilocybin for exploring its potential as a treatment for depression

Since then, the Home Office have failed to translate this into law

Andrew Neil set to quit GB News - The Telegraph - this is no surprise to me. My one experience of appearing on ⁦@GBNEWS⁩ was a shambolic affair. The writing appears to be on the wall for this channel https://t.co/2nHBVXgBSB

[David Badcock @BadcockDavid]

Our position at Drug Science is simple: any decisions about drugs and drug use need to follow the facts. Put bluntly, 50 years’ worth of prohibition has not only failed to deal with the UK’s drug problem, but in very many cases has made it worse https://t.co/epjQbhtcsd

[David Badcock @BadcockDavid]

@shortthought @Lumawkin @GBNEWS I have no issue saying whether or not I use drugs. But I was led to believe that it was going to be a proper debate about drug policy (it wasn’t). This was an amateurish school boy question by the presenters making it personal rather than objective. Poor form

[David Badcock @BadcockDavid]

@Paul__North @GBNEWS Thanks Paul. Was a tough interview for a number of reasons, especially that we could hardly hear the presenters asking questions! Would have liked more space to answer properly rather than constantly interrupted

[David Badcock @BadcockDavid]

@Lumawkin @GBNEWS I didn’t avoid it, I literally couldn’t hear it. The answer is no, but the debate was not about me and very disappointed I was asked that question
