NEW DRUGS BILL TO CRIMINILIZE FUNGI
19-12-2004 06:40
A new drugs bill introduced to parliament on 16 Dec will extend police powers, including the power to test for class A drugs simply by arrest. Those testing positive would be required to attend an assessment and follow-up appointment.Additionally, the bill will clarify the current ambiguity relating to the legal status of magic mushrooms, making POSSESSION OF ALL PSILOCYBIAN MUSHROOMS ILLEGAL. Fresh/unprepared mushrooms are currently legal to possess and sell in the UK. Mushrooms artificially dried/prepared for consumption are currently class A. Psilocybian mushrooms are of deep spiritual value as entheogenic sacraments to many people. Their further prohibition constitutes not an increase in the repression of both freedom of spiritual belief, and of basic civil liberties. Common features of the "drug war". I hate to say it, but i kinda saw this coming around a year ago when our beloved mycolegal loophole started becoming over-commercialised :@

Do they really give a fuck at all’ is the CD released by the Free the World Collective. The CD is a response from the anti-capitalist movement with several spoof versions of the Band-Aid 20 single, a song almost beyond parody. Diverse in their messages and themes, the songs are about understanding that we don’t exist separately from the “world outside our window”, that we are all part of that world and have the power to change it.OPSC alternative carol-singing - Thurs 16th 6pm
