'Britain has never had a War on Drugs; soon we shall wish we had. Plus Q&A' with Peter Hitchens

An award winning journalist and author, PETER HITCHENS writes a weekly column for the Mail on Sunday in which he gives his (often controversial) views on a wide variety of political topics. He is the author of several books, including 'The War We Never Fought' in which he argues that cannabis is at least as dangerous as heroin and cocaine, and that 'To all intents and purposes, cannabis is legal in Britain, and other major drugs are not far behind'.

Speaking to us on the same topic, Hitchens is a vociferous opponent of drug legalisation and argues that the concepts of 'physical addiction' and 'withdrawal symptoms' are 'myths'.

After his talk he will also answer any questions you may have. We look forward to seeing you for what is sure to be an interesting talk and passionate Q&A!
