Leading UK politician 'took cocaine'

Conservative Party cabinet minister Michael Gove claims he is truly sorry he took cocaine twenty years ago.

Quote:

Tory leadership candidate Michael Gove has said he "deeply regrets" taking cocaine more than 20 years ago.

He told the Daily Mail that he had taken the drug at several "social events" while working as a journalist.

The environment secretary said he believed the "mistake" should not be held against him in his bid to become prime minister.

Members of the party are due to vote for a new party leader after Theresa May stepped down from the role.

Mr Gove, who served as justice secretary from 2015-16, is one of 11 Tory MPs who have said they intend to stand in the contest to replace her, with the winner expected to be announced in late July.

International Development Secretary Rory Stewart, who is one of those standing against him, has already apologised for smoking opium - a class A drug in the UK - at a wedding in Iran 15 years ago.

How degenerate is that? Here we have highly educated individuals whom we presume are au fait with current affairs, so ought to know better.

Gove must surely know that it is middle class people like him who fuel the burgeoning South American cocaine trade with the resulting drug cartel wars, deadly gang rivalry, county line drug gangs in the UK in which youths barely more than children trade the stuff on behalf of the serious organised crime barons who rarely get caught, end up in jail or dead, knife crime and fierce post-code wars.

Has Gove or Stewart (with his opium smoking) never given a thought to their grossly irresponsible behaviour, never mind actually boasting about it as though it is a badge of honour.

Shocking!!!
