  • So. Yeah. Poppers.
    It's OK if you're an MP who takes mind bending substances to expand their mind and bond better through sex, because then you can say something about it and possibly get a review. But what if it was a different drug?

    It will be used to shut down sex venues though.
    Which is worrying.

    I thought it was quite positive that a tory MP had been honest about his use of the drug, and outspoken about the stupidity of banning it, in contradiction of his government. If it was a different drug, well, it might have been different. Maybe he didn't use a different drug. Not sure what you mean.

  • He may be an MP but he's also a gay man. Which I imagine is why he's taken poppers. It's not about trying to 'bond better during sex', it's about making anal sex easier.

    It's very disappointing that the government has banned poppers, despite opposition from the gay community and expert testimony from drugs experts. This isn't some minority viewpoint, Stonewall was against banning them too.

    To quote Keith Vaz: ‘The government recognises that representations have been made to the effect that poppers have a beneficial health effect in enabling anal sex in men who have sex with men.”

    So they banned them anyway.
