A former government advisor on drugs policy says controls on certain drugs, such as LSD and MDMA, are preventing legitimate medical tests from being conducted.
A former government advisor on drugs policy says medical advancements are being held back by the British Government's "arcane" legislation.
Professor David Nutt, who has worked in drug policy for 40 years, argues better treatments could be available for a range of conditions, including Parkinsons, PTSD, OCD and depression.
Speaking with 成人快手 Radio 5 Live's Geoff Lloyd, he claims controls on certain drugs, such as LSD and MDMA, are preventing legitimate medical tests from being conducted.
