  1. looks like the paranoid psychosis is taking a grip here nobody said everybody that smokes weed is a useless jaikie ffs. maybe you need to lay off it for a bit before you end up with a nervous twitch.
  2. From a different source The Tobacco Manufacturers Association claimed that more recent data showed that "the level of cigarettes consumed that are not UK tax paid has risen from 17% in 2011 to 21% in 2012" and that figures from the Office of Budget Responsibility last week showed the government expected to receive £200m less in tobacco revenue in 2012-13.
  3. So do you know what the comparable costs will be or are you going to waffle on about how it will undercut the dealers without having the first clue about any of the associated costs either? FWIW, I would prefer so see regulation and decriminalisation of the drug trade but I think it's naive in the extreme to think these things will rid the world of drug dealers. These thing would rack up massive costs before they got anywhere near the end consumer and that's before you add on pharmaceutical company profits and the government ripping the hole out of it like they do with tobacco and alcohol.
  4. You're the moron if you think that legalising drugs is going to wipe out the dealers Smoking is legal yet 25% of that trade is done via the black market for the simple reason that it's cheaper. And as for childlike responses, constantly going on about how much cheaper something will be while admitting you have no idea how much it will cost is absolutely fucking idiotic. If you think government regulation is going to cure societies problems rather than attempt to create an industry to match tobacco and alcohol with the problems that go with it you're up a gum tree.
  5. So you have no idea of the production or packaging costs,the testing costs, the licensing costs, the regulation costs, the marketing costs, the distribution costs or how much duty or vat will be added but you know it will be cheaper than the present method. What happens when the arse falls out of the illegal trade and the price plummets? will it still be cheaper?
  6. Still not seeing any prices here. How much are they going to cost in comparison? How do the multi nationals overheads compare to man in the jungles. How much does a kilo of coke cost from the man in the jungle and how much does it cost when it gets here. How much would it cost from the shelf if it became legal.
  7. Dealers don't have to worry about massive development and regulation costs, they've hardly got any overheads for packaging or marketing either unless the cost of cellophane and text messages have significantly increased. How much exactly is a multinational going to sell the products for and how much duty and vat is going to be applied to the products? Unless I'm badly mistaken, the average smack head is hardly a connoisseur and is after the biggest bang for their buck so what will the comparative cost be?
  8. How can you not know what the rrp will be? You claim that drugs will be cheaper and street dealers will be greatly undercut. How much will it cost to produce, package, distribute and market the drugs and what amount of duty will the government levy on these products? ETA, be very specific
  9. Where's your price list? How much is each individual drug going to cost in comparison on a like for like basis when things like vat and duty are lumped on by the government? Will you be allowed to cultivate your own cannabis when the government are selling it, or will that be illegal? If it ends up costing more to buy government approved drugs will it have any effect on dealers?
  10. Amore or the Italian kitchen, both on Ingram street, both very good.
  11. Let her pack them and ask if she takes switch when she's finished.
  12. 20 litre vats of vodka have never been a requirement to binge drink AFAIK, as for the second point, I wouldn't outlaw anything, I was simply asking how he came to the absurd conclusion that legality of drugs combats bingeing. People do things to excess because it's in their nature not because of the legal status of what they're consuming.
  13. Any proof for this claim or is it just an opinion?If alcohol was illegal, would there be more or less alcoholics in Scotland?
  14. He'll probably have a meltdown soon and "come out the closet".
  15. Just dip the clutch and rev the engine loudly and they'll soon quicken up. They'll probably give you the finger and call you a w****r while you're laughing at them as well.
  16. Only if I could get a hold of a full Kevlar body armour suit first though.
  17. I wouldn't want to get up either if i had to wear some of the stuff you buy from amazon.
  18. I used to put shell v-power diesel in the works van I never noticed any improvement in performance but the road transport department noticed that my van was costing between £6 and £7 more to fill than anybody else's. They didn't think the potential economical benefits merited the extra spend and banned me from being so extravagant with their fuel card.
  19. Looks like you got the right activity but the wrong location.
  20. You'll be able to skud the dodie to jackie bird on hogmanay live
  21. You've had too much already, step away from the decanter verbal.
  22. That looks like a sleeves rolled up, bare knuckle fighting mans drink
  23. Some old dear crashed into the back of me today while i was waiting at a junction, neck and back are quite sore and stiff. Anybody recommend any ambulance chasers to fight for my fortune
