It is definitely not an offence to take illegal drugs in the UK. None of the three main drug laws contain any reference to the taking of drugs.
Well IANAL, but gov.uk seems to think it is -
Drugs penalties You can get a fine or prison sentence if you:
take drugs carry drugs make drugs sell, deal or share drugs (also called ‘supplying’ them)
Would appreciate a lawyer"s input on that because the misuse of drug act does not specify taking drugs as a crime. I wonder which law it is a crime under?
