Top Tory Toff in Boarding School Drug Shame Hell

Well, Cameron smoked drugs in school. Let the cries of horror and disgust echo round Britian. The truth is, no-one is really surprised in the least, and deep down, no-one gives a toss. I cannot in all honesty believe that there remains a person in Britain who is shocked by drug use. It calls to mind the ludicrous image of Bill Clinton puffing, but not inhaling, on a joint, before diplomatically passing it along. What people are doing is not reacting with genuine horror to an action they find repugnant, but working themselves up into a self righteous tizzy for the hell of it. I can understand the arguments for banning certain narcotics, even if I am not convinced by them. What I cannot understand is this manufactured revulsion of a person who holds different views to you on this fairly minor issue. Compared to some of the deeply divisive issues in Cameron's past, most notably his support of the war in Iraq, a sly toke at the age of fifteen is a massive irrelevance.
