Britain Has Lost It's Mind

At least the ones running the prisons have.
Quote:
Prisoners who have beaten their drug dependency while incarcerated are being given substances such as methadone – the highly addictive heroin substitute – before their release, according to reports.
The process, called "retoxification", is allegedly designed to boost the tolerance of former addicts who are deemed likely to start using drugs on their release, to minimise the risk of them taking an overdose.
This has been going on for five years in England and Scotland, even at young offenders' institutions.
