Description:
Peter Paget is a young Member of Parliament who shocks Britain by campaigning to legalise all drugs. He believes the war on drugs has failed and is causing more harm than good. As his campaign grows, the story follows many different lives touched by drugs, from a famous pop star to a teenage runaway alone on the streets of London. Their stories reveal the danger, crime and heartbreak linked to addiction. Sharp, funny and often dark, this thought-provoking satire asks big questions about law, society and how we deal with drugs.
