Personally, I have no problems with him having taken some drugs in his youth. I may disagree with what he, as a Tory, stands for, but I have no problems with him having gotten high as a kite when young. Maybe a more relaxed attitude to politicians taking drugs would be a good thing for democracy.
I entirely agree with you BS. I think cannabis should be available as in Amsterdam (although I have tried it many times, can easily get it, I just don't like it).
I think X should probably be available.
And I think the Portuguese experience of decriminalization has been enlightening. I still find the prospect of freely available cocaine, heroin, and crystal meth, somewhat scary
