".
A regulation is being proposed to us that is designed to strengthen the European Monitoring Centre for Drugs and Drug Addiction, to sort out its administrative and communication problems and to create new posts for officials. Just how effective, however, has this ultra-European tool been at a time when drugs are a scourge that continues to destroy families? Drug addiction causes people to fail at school, makes them unable to work, causes them to be admitted to psychiatric hospitals and leads them to die by suicide or from overdoses.
We need to see action taken, rather than having to read deteriorating statistics. Parliament’s Committee on the Environment, Public Health and Food Safety is right to propose going beyond the mere collection of data in order also to assess the policies of the Member States so that the latter might benefit from best practice. This does not imply stripping Member States of their prerogatives and transferring these to the Monitoring Centre but, on the contrary, strengthening cooperation between the Member States.
In addition to the death penalty for drug barons, we also need to see a radical change in mentality in order to silence the left-wing ideology of the last 40 years. This has led to lax attitudes towards criminality which have been accepted wholesale by smug governments and have led to the poisoning of millions of people, the physical consequences of which also lead to permanent social exclusion."@en1
