Christian Voice spokesman, Robin Phillips, commented, &#8220;This ludicrous proposal is based on the idea that drug-use is inevitable, that since it is going to happen anyway it might as well happen in a safe environment. That seems like dangerous reasoning to us, and I&#8217;m sure our leaders would never think to apply the same principle to other areas of criminality. More worrying is the fact that <span>Mr Trace, vice chairman of the commission, is now saying that eradication of illegal drug use is no longer a realistic aim. With so much at stake, do we really want to engage in public acts of surrender?&#8221;<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><strong>Find out how to join Christian Voice and stand up for the King of kings (clicking on the link below does not commit you to join)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/wp.me\/P1OVTZ-gb\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-3940\" style=\"border: 0px;\" title=\"Join Today!\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/www.christianvoice.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/Join_donate_Logo2.jpg\" width=\"185\" height=\"180\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><em>Please note that persons wishing to comment on this story must enter a valid email address.
