  1. It’s about fucking time! Scotland has one of the worst overdose rates in Europe. Give these people some dignity.

  2. Here’s hoping it saves some of these poor peoples lives.

  3. Here’s hoping the media coverage isn’t shallow and knee jerk.

  4. Given how much this has been hyped as the key solution to the drug death issue I hope we are going to see good results from this.

  5. Not being open 24 hours seems a bit daft but hopefully it helps. Also I thought this wasn’t allowed due to UK policy did soemthing change?

  6. Grow cannabis and get the same kind of sentence a White Rioter gets.

    Wanna inject smack bought from the First Minister’s brother? STEP RIGHT UP TO THE SUICIDE POD.

  7. Doesn’t achieve much of anything unless there is infrastructure in place to actually get these people off of using drugs in the first place. Things like methadone replacement or keeping an eye on them while they do it only serves to marginally reduce the risks of doing so, which shouldn’t really be the goal.

  8. scotland: sees canada, ignore all the negatives, do it anyways.
