Abstract

The article reports that the summary termination of David Nutt as chairman of the Advisory Council on the Misuse of Drugs by Secretary Alan Johnson in Great Britain reflects the inability of British politicians to meet an intelligent debate. The termination resulted from the article written by Nutt on disproportionate report of media on the deaths caused by various drugs which influence the perception of the public. It adds the resignation of two members of Nutt's committee to oppose the act.
