Last year the ‘Students for Sensible Drug Policy’ society successfully campaigned for ecstasy testing kits to be sold in Leeds University Union. The motion was voted in by 1750 votes to 670, but subsequent political conflicts between the Student Executive and the society means the motion remains in the bureaucracy stage.
The following interview with Graham Aitken, SSDP UK Secretary, debates the stigma attached to the campaign group, the need for reform of drug policy and the resistance against changes in drug policy.
