“Playgrounds will become crack dens.” That was the warning from Labour minister Sarah Jones about drug decriminalisation under the Green Party's proposed drug reform. But real reform is about regulation, public health, and harm reduction. I wrote an article that combines lived experience, UK policy analysis, and lessons from Portugal and Oregon to illustrate what meaningful reform actually looks like.
