"Same effect as cannabis" I see...explains why you never see anything like this in the Netherlands. Here's a easy solution for the UK. Ban all synthetic drugs, legalize regular marijuana
that'll never happen gov don't want thinking pot heads, but rather have zombies hooked on synthetic and addictive substances... what's a few dead kids aye!! it'll keep the sheeple in line.
@@jonthebutcher Okay,.. so how come synthetic cheap knockoffs aren't a thing in countries where marijuana is legalized? Nobody is smoking "spice" here.
Red Knight I think there is a lot of confusion with what is being reported and what certain areas call spice. In certain areas, spice refers to a synthetic cannabis which I agree, it's not cannabis. It is however in those areas, a synthetic cannabis, which means it is suppose to mimic cannabis and is molecularly similar to THC however it is not actually thc. There are areas which sell, "spice" but it's actually a completely different synthetic with a completely different high.
Once tested Spice in London Camden with friends after our exams years ago, because we were unable to get us some weed.. It resulted in one of us thinking that he is teleporting every few steps he walked and paniced and the other guys were trippin harder then ever trough Chinatown.. my advice is DO NOT USE IT AS WEED REPLACEMENT ITS CHEMICAL POISEN!!
back in the days we were just too young dumb and way to inexperienced to scan the street and immediate find the right guy..and i'm not proud to say that nowadays i would be able to.. in germany it was one of our closest friends so we never got in touch with streetlevel guys we were just too coward i think
@@paulnicholls8683 most drug users are self medicating their mental health problems or using it to forget abuse. I'm a schizophrenic and was only diagnosed in my late 30s, from the age of 13 I took drugs to stop the voices, the idea was, drugs change the state of your mind, my mind is completely fucked, so maybe drugs will make it better. Then at 19 I found heroin and it worked(still works better than any medication I've been prescribed and is why I still can't 100% quit).

Actually when spice was legal it was an entirely different drug and equivalent to weed, the government banned it so they changed the structure just enough it was a different drug. This happened repeatedly until finally the act discusses in the video was made. With evry variation the drug became more dangerous and became what it is today
I was smoking it for a few months, a few years ago. It was dirt cheap, think £10 for 1g. Which sounds about the same as cannibis here but it was so powerful I would just need the tiniest bit in cigarette to feel like 1 normal/heavy joint. I'd put so little in that if it was weed you wouldn't even feel it. Roll more than that and the stuff turns you hot and cold, pale then you hit the deck. Rolling a joint of that like it's normal green is lethal. I too noticed some negative effects to my mental health and seemed somewhat addicting. Edit: don't mix with any amount of booze, bad things..

Now that weed is recreationally legal here in Oregon, we have safe lab tested locally grown weed and the prices have gone to rock bottom- 60$ an ounce now at most local pot shops ( about 30 in my town of 150,000 people). You can be sure nobody is using that nasty spice crap around here. Legalize wholesome weed and there is no market for spice.
It's a sad existence now right in the full view of the passing public in Manchester city centre. Men and women laying unconscious amongst the shoppers and commuters. Something needs to be done to help these people and combat this problem that is crippling the image of MCR.
I know a dude who did spice because his job drug tested them for pot, he got psychotic, paranoid of the neighbors, bought a vicious dog. His wife had to move out with their baby, he eventually quit and returned to normal.
I went to Manchester and as I drove into the car park of the hotel is was staying at, there was two lads in this zombie like state sat on the wall and the other was decked out on the floor. So I'd literally been in Manchester about 10 or 15 minutes and I witnessed this. I thought they were smacked up but they must've been on spice.
Not sure if legal weed would prevent the use of this. I smoke dispensary weed pretty much daily (and have been smoking for almost 35 years) and have never experienced the effects spice provides. Someone seeking the sort of disconnect a spice high can give you will need more than the strongest indica. Just like legal heroin wouldn't turn everyone into junkies, legal weed won't turn junkies into potheads. If you took weed away tomorrow, I wouldn't start drinking. These people have problems that were there long before they started smoking spice. Take away spice, they'll sniff glue or solvents. Sometimes I think the most complete solution is to lock them up in some encampment and give them all the drugs they want. It would be nice to think you can help and save all these junkies but you'd be more effective trying to push back waves at the beach.
My dad had me smoke spice when I was 13 it was the worst experience of my life I was scared I couldn’t move everything went black then when I could move I was screaming and cussing at my dad and everything sounded so loud
if it's manmade, it's dangerous. Watching stuff like this makes me genuinely scared for the youth in these years, many get Mental health issues due to COVID, turn to drugs. it's not going to be good. hopefully at some point we can get rid of this horrible drug.
Most drug users have mental issues long before covid, I'm an addict who has been using almost 30 year and all because I couldn't talk about my schizophrenia and hid it and then used to try to stop it. Spice was very, very cheap and offered a high level of escapism, so the people who wanted to hide from reality because of their issues or memories, ended up loving it and that's why it became such an epidemic, spice became really big around 6-7 year ago and covid happened in 2019. Funny that spice was around in the 90s, though was real weak then
@@Bobbb-f3i sorry to hear that mate. Honestly it’s a fucked up thing. What I meant by the whole covid thing is that BECAUSE of COVID and the Increase of mental health illnesses that have followed, more young people will be wanting to try spice / other drugs for the sense of escapism. Hope it can get sorted out, but we’ll never know
@@joonefps I get what you meant, a lot of people don't understand how old spice is, but the elder stuff was weak and didn't do the damage this new stuff does and yeah covid is causing a lot of mental problems, but for someone to go flat out junkie usually means something huge, life changing and yeah covid has done that to many, I worked at start of it and the business I worked for folded because it was too small to last the lockdown and things like that happened to thousands and then many ended up homeless and that's reason enough to turn to drugs or drink, so yeah I got what you meant but it's more than just the stress of lockdown that would cause someone to hit the hard drugs in earnest
It's an absolute disgrace that super rich football clubs in Manchester (And all the other Cities!!!) don't do more for the community.....Paying young foreigners £100,000+ while local people are living on the streets.....I recently spent the night in Manchester and was appalled by the Homeless situation. I was 'aggressively approached' on the street by one person asking me for money and another 'beggar' came into a pub beer garden and asked everybody for money.....People are getting into debt buying designer clothes on credit while others are homeless.....A Police officer 'moved me on' from outside Printworks even though I was holding a bag from a local store I'd just been in.....But the Police do NOTHING when I'm hassled by beggars.....This country, and the rest of the world is controlled by the Rich, and they ain't sharing!!!!
Yeah, coz it's a football teams job to deal with poverty, homelessness, mental health issues and drug abuse innit? Spending all their time thinking about winning football matches!pfft. Heartless bastards. And what are they doing about falling education standards eh? NOTHING! They could be funding more teachers in our schools instead of worrying about winning fancy trophies and selling overpriced shirts. And what are they doing about climate change eh? Blah blah blah blah etc etc etc etc..... (Are you getting my point here?)
GARY171064 why is it? Short of paying the taxes they are supposed to, what else are they supposed to do? And yes the rich avoid paying as much as possible but government shudnt make it so easy to do so. Football clubs do a lot for the youth in their areas anyway and donate a fair bit to charity too but the services these homeless spice heads need are provided by the NHS and local authorities. If they are underfunded, (and they are) that's bad, but the tax system is how these clubs and big companies contribute to those things. That and creating jobs in the local area. So many ppl are employed directly or indirectly by these clubs. Not just players, coaches etc but physiotherapists, sports psychologists, stewards who work the stadiums on match days, cleaners, caterers, ppl in the official club shops and the stimulus to the local economy. I understand the juxtaposition of such wealth and poverty is hard to stomach but it's really not up to the rich to deal with homelessness spice heads.
+baby boobear Option 1....Buy a South American (or whatever) for £75million and pay him £250,000 a week.... or Option 2.....Invest in youth and promote home grown players and use some of the money to clean up and improve your home City. Manchester has TWO of the richest clubs in the World yet the streets are crawling with homeless....think about it.
GARY171064 fans would desert the team in droves if they didn't win silverware. Would stop buying season tickets, shirts etc. My point is that it is NOT THEIR RESPONSIBILITY!!
Hey Dabs, fuck them lot they've never been in trouble with the law,. I've been to prison for growing cannabis and everyone was on it. I was still smoking it when I came out up until it was banned. I quite liked it and I wasn't anything like those idiots who are on the floor! Your right though it doesn't show up on a drugs test so i knew I was safe too whist on probation..
This is nothing to do with money this is to do with mental health. My uncle lived on the streets despite having a home he was and still is an alchoholic. He was friends with a man who was extremely wealthy but also chose to live on the streets. Life isnt for everyone.
When it comes to spice, the legal alternative to cannabis, the plant derivative of spice, Salvia divinorum is quite safe in itself. And is one hell of a trip. But the spice that sold commercially has dangerous chemicals in it to make it stronger, and that's what gives you that tingling kind of dizzy High
I've been immersed in the drug culture all my adult life and this "spice" is hands down some of the filthiest shit I've ever experienced. Nothing good about it.
Thank you for saying this. Thank you for caring about humans enough to say the truth Hugs, laughter and love are the best meds and music and nature and water.... 🦋🦋🍁🍀🌼🌻🌷💐🌊🌬️ 🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶
I'm really interested in the precise physiological effects of this stuff. I tried it two times back in my stupider days and the effects really are similar to thc just thousands of times more potent. But not in the level that can be reached by smoking a lot of weed. You would get very anxious and pass out at worse on high amounts of weed. But this shit ten folds the effects of thc. Wonder how differently it interacts with the cannabinoid receptors.
I never heard of spice and what I don't understand is, what kind of wicked mind would create such a Drug, and why is All the Governments of the world is allowing this.
There were homeless people in Manchester when I was growing up in the late 80's early 90's, but not that many. Now there are tons. Hundreds! And we have new glass social playgrounds for yuppies, the divide is becoming more visible.
The sad thing about spice is that people have no care for how scary it must be for young kids to see this in the street. If you see a spicehead, pull down their joggers and boxers, and leave them standing there humiliated!
I've done this drug over 12times but back when I did it, it wasn't as strong. I quit doing it like 4 years ago because I found out its worser than A class drugs and I didn't feel great doing it...made me paranoid and like I was dead and I remember walking wobbly in a town centre in front of people.. I felt woop paranoid and .. It's a 10x stronger than weed plus u get nastier effects than weed. Other times I smoked I didn't feel anything. Then other times I smoked it, i felt like I was dead and stupid.. Like I can't control how I act.. Aha so glad I quit that cfap
I am in my 40s and have used all drugs I could find since the age of 13(I was an undiagnosed schizophrenic who just wanted the voices to stop) and I remember doing a YTS scheme in Newcastle upon Tyne and there was a hippy(think they call them head shops nowadays) shop that sold a lot of legal highs and me and a couple others on the course worked our way through his list, I remember spice being on that price list and described as "similar to cannabis", but cannabis was the only drug that made my mental problems worse, so I never tried it, though one of my friends did and said it was rubbish. I think they've known how to make it for a long time, but only just perfected it to the super-strength shit you see people zombieing out on
Does anyone remember spiced gold? Like, 2010 ish, they sold it in pre rolled joints and it was actually quite nice. Until the revolving "ban and slightly modify the chemical" thing happened and people started jumping off buildings and passing out in alleys, which is not nice.
Kevin Belden It's not actually it's a lot worse than portrayed in this video, walk through the central streets of Manchester and see for yourself. You can't walk 5 yards down Market Street without being asked for spare change by this lot.
damn this drug have seriously gone out of hand. I remember the first generation of spice back when I used to smoke it, yeah sure it was dangerous but it was waaaaay tamer
We had spice in America too. The kids could buy it from the store so it was always around (about 2010-ish). I did plenty. It wasn't crazy or anything. It was like somewhere between weed and a mild dissociative.
There needs to be a massive overhaul of the drugs and it’s criminality and we need to adopt the Swiss system and treat people with healthcare not criminality
Our young men and women with no hope of work and home life ... Imported over population and deindustrialisation. We want our England back for her children to live in safely.
Got this going on in the centre of Hull too now. It's disgusting when you have to expose kids and elderly people to this kind of behaviour. I wish they could be rounded up and disposed of.
The Hull problem is not the local homeless, its people 'released' from the 2 prisons who are just thrown out into a city they probably dont know anything about, nowhere to go, no friends or family who live there, and hence all they end up doing is sticking with fellow released prisoners and smoking the 'prison drug' - Spice.
It's crazy that some govs are legalizing synthetic marijuana, yet still keep actual marijuana illegal. That's the power of big pharm unfortunately. Glad I live in Canada where as of Oct 1 I can legally grow my own without any sort of license, or perscription
Remember seeing kids buying spice from a shop where I live not long back. The best solution is for individuals to just say NO. criminalisation doesn't work. People need a better option in life. Easy for me to say I'm not living in a shop doorway with nowhere to wash or launder clothes.
Just say no.....what a great success that was in the 1980's. The only way is education and harm reduction because humanity has been wanted to get wasted for millenia and will continue. Who is the government to say you can do this but you can't do this.
Its sickening to see govt , people ignoring the drug problem in our societies...no one wants to speak about it....you ignore it your children are the ones who will suffer in future
Am I the only person noticing all these people walking past and looking down on the people in the streets?! Not stopping to help, not an ounce of concern. Horrible. Maybe a lot of people are self destructive, but that doesn't mean we can't help. Today's society stinks.
Those people are probably only just keeping themselves and their own families above the water. Sometimes you've got to leave the wounded whilst the battles on.
If it's not legal,it cant be controlled. The biggest mistake was banning this substance. It's probably a lot stronger, know it's in the hands of dealers. I never heard of,nor seen anyone like this when you could buy it from legal high shops. Dealers make it stronger and more addictive. Make all drugs legal,and control them so they are safer. It's the only way to help people who get into difficulties when using drugs.
Simple solution decriminalize marijuana problem solved !!!Who would smoke k2 if they could walk around the block n grab some o.g. kush or get some wax n go home n rip a dab
Legalize and control MJ. We are doing it in Canada. I have never EVER heard of spice. Sounds like a nightmare. What is the worst case scenario if you smoke good natural weed? Eat chips...get leazy...laugh at every stupid joke...maybe a little paranoia while ur friends laugh at you. Legalize it and let's stop this insanity.
nw8000 I’ve taken more drugs then you can name and I’m just fine! Use never abuse! Majority of people take drugs mate. These people are just from broken homes, care homes, weak minded, abused and very susceptible to addiction..
Oh NO! The character from Demon's Souls on the PS3 ended up hooked on Spice. At first it was just to help regenerate mana to cast spells. Fresh Spice recovered 50 mana points and helped him forget the harshness of being in Demonic world. But soon, oh how horribly soon, his Spice addiction took a turn for the worse. He found Old Spice, and after a few hits, not only did he have a full magic bar, he now WAS the demon. Killing innocent Tower of Latria Jailers with streams of fire, and anorexic skeletons in the shrine of storms with rays made of innocent souls. He was a full blown Spice addict. No longer was backstabbing fun to him, as he loved spice so much he couldn't stop. Long before Estus addiction there was Spice addiction. And and night, he smoked Dark Moon Grass to help him sleep easier. Dank Souls it is.
Hans Schtuk think about people who lace drugs and young people who are not the brightest. for a lot of people this is a victim drug not because they were looking for it.
Hans Schtuk you forget that some people take drugs to self medicate. Self medication isn't the way forward, however people do it when they can't get the help they need. Problem is that people get short term relief from their mental health problems and before they know it, boom they're addicted!
Jo Feeney/Mason yes u r right I spoke to a lady on spice and she said the withdrawal is 10 times stronger and worser and there is no substitute like there is woth the gear like subby or methadone it's terrible uo our town centre in Brum there's hundreds of them some are passed out in road n some are chewing their shoes!?? Madness man...

@@joonefps I get what you meant, a lot of people don't understand how old spice is, but the elder stuff was weak and didn't do the damage this new stuff does and yeah covid is causing a lot of mental problems, but for someone to go flat out junkie usually means something huge, life changing and yeah covid has done that to many, I worked at start of it and the business I worked for folded because it was too small to last the lockdown and things like that happened to thousands and then many ended up homeless and that's reason enough to turn to drugs or drink, so yeah I got what you meant but it's more than just the stress of lockdown that would cause someone to hit the hard drugs in earnest
Spice has more less gone though
the urge should be to involve into anti-drug society and create awareness.
Newcastle is the same! People passed out, lying in the street Ambulances and Police officers being tied up having to deal with it.
It's an absolute disgrace that super rich football clubs in Manchester (And all the other Cities!!!) don't do more for the community.....Paying young foreigners £100,000+ while local people are living on the streets.....I recently spent the night in Manchester and was appalled by the Homeless situation. I was 'aggressively approached' on the street by one person asking me for money and another 'beggar' came into a pub beer garden and asked everybody for money.....People are getting into debt buying designer clothes on credit while others are homeless.....A Police officer 'moved me on' from outside Printworks even though I was holding a bag from a local store I'd just been in.....But the Police do NOTHING when I'm hassled by beggars.....This country, and the rest of the world is controlled by the Rich, and they ain't sharing!!!!
Yeah, coz it's a football teams job to deal with poverty, homelessness, mental health issues and drug abuse innit? Spending all their time thinking about winning football matches!pfft. Heartless bastards. And what are they doing about falling education standards eh? NOTHING! They could be funding more teachers in our schools instead of worrying about winning fancy trophies and selling overpriced shirts. And what are they doing about climate change eh? Blah blah blah blah etc etc etc etc..... (Are you getting my point here?)
+baby boobear It's not their job to solve every problem but the rich should address issues on their doorstep.
GARY171064 why is it? Short of paying the taxes they are supposed to, what else are they supposed to do? And yes the rich avoid paying as much as possible but government shudnt make it so easy to do so. Football clubs do a lot for the youth in their areas anyway and donate a fair bit to charity too but the services these homeless spice heads need are provided by the NHS and local authorities. If they are underfunded, (and they are) that's bad, but the tax system is how these clubs and big companies contribute to those things. That and creating jobs in the local area. So many ppl are employed directly or indirectly by these clubs. Not just players, coaches etc but physiotherapists, sports psychologists, stewards who work the stadiums on match days, cleaners, caterers, ppl in the official club shops and the stimulus to the local economy. I understand the juxtaposition of such wealth and poverty is hard to stomach but it's really not up to the rich to deal with homelessness spice heads.
+baby boobear Option 1....Buy a South American (or whatever) for £75million and pay him £250,000 a week.... or Option 2.....Invest in youth and promote home grown players and use some of the money to clean up and improve your home City.
Manchester has TWO of the richest clubs in the World yet the streets are crawling with homeless....think about it.
GARY171064 fans would desert the team in droves if they didn't win silverware. Would stop buying season tickets, shirts etc. My point is that it is NOT THEIR RESPONSIBILITY!!
lol its nothing like cannabis. i used to be strung out on spice because i was in probation and couldnt smoke weed.
Lord Dabs Sad life you lead.
Pathetic
Get a hobby. Do something productive with your life, lad.
Hey Dabs, fuck them lot they've never been in trouble with the law,. I've been to prison for growing cannabis and everyone was on it. I was still smoking it when I came out up until it was banned. I quite liked it and I wasn't anything like those idiots who are on the floor! Your right though it doesn't show up on a drugs test so i knew I was safe too whist on probation..
Lord Dabs dabs are fucking awesome my friend
This is nothing to do with money this is to do with mental health. My uncle lived on the streets despite having a home he was and still is an alchoholic. He was friends with a man who was extremely wealthy but also chose to live on the streets. Life isnt for everyone.

The British government legalize harmful synthetic drugs but can't legalize cannabis?!
How the fuck does that work out?
When it comes to spice, the legal alternative to cannabis, the plant derivative of spice, Salvia divinorum is quite safe in itself. And is one hell of a trip. But the spice that sold commercially has dangerous chemicals in it to make it stronger, and that's what gives you that tingling kind of dizzy High
I've been immersed in the drug culture all my adult life and this "spice" is hands down some of the filthiest shit I've ever experienced. Nothing good about it.
Thank you for saying this.
Thank you for caring about humans enough to say the truth

I'm really interested in the precise physiological effects of this stuff. I tried it two times back in my stupider days and the effects really are similar to thc just thousands of times more potent. But not in the level that can be reached by smoking a lot of weed. You would get very anxious and pass out at worse on high amounts of weed. But this shit ten folds the effects of thc. Wonder how differently it interacts with the cannabinoid receptors.
Legalise cannabis for goodness sake. The criminalisation of drugs and users is the biggest waste of money and human potential.
I never heard of spice and what I don't understand is, what kind of wicked mind would create such a Drug, and why is All the Governments of the world is allowing this.
I will stick with my blunt of lemon haze thank you very much Mr Spiceman !
SPICEGIRLS.
And their missing member - Old Spice.
Say ‘Space Ghetto” in an American accent......it sounds like Spice Girl in a Scottish accent
Loooool
Chris Penny Very good. 😊
Hikory 831 more like fucking spice world!
If there isn't a better argument for the full legalisation, regulation and open sale of cannabis... I haven't heard it.
There were homeless people in Manchester when I was growing up in the late 80's early 90's, but not that many. Now there are tons. Hundreds! And we have new glass social playgrounds for yuppies, the divide is becoming more visible.
The sad thing about spice is that people have no care for how scary it must be for young kids to see this in the street. If you see a spicehead, pull down their joggers and boxers, and leave them standing there humiliated!
Namispond Jamispond genitals are natural. Kids have them too.
I've done this drug over 12times but back when I did it, it wasn't as strong. I quit doing it like 4 years ago because I found out its worser than A class drugs and I didn't feel great doing it...made me paranoid and like I was dead and I remember walking wobbly in a town centre in front of people.. I felt woop paranoid and .. It's a 10x stronger than weed plus u get nastier effects than weed. Other times I smoked I didn't feel anything. Then other times I smoked it, i felt like I was dead and stupid.. Like I can't control how I act.. Aha so glad I quit that cfap
I am in my 40s and have used all drugs I could find since the age of 13(I was an undiagnosed schizophrenic who just wanted the voices to stop) and I remember doing a YTS scheme in Newcastle upon Tyne and there was a hippy(think they call them head shops nowadays) shop that sold a lot of legal highs and me and a couple others on the course worked our way through his list, I remember spice being on that price list and described as "similar to cannabis", but cannabis was the only drug that made my mental problems worse, so I never tried it, though one of my friends did and said it was rubbish. I think they've known how to make it for a long time, but only just perfected it to the super-strength shit you see people zombieing out on
How sad it is to watch everyone walking around their fellow man lying in the street, and slumped over benches.
Does anyone remember spiced gold? Like, 2010 ish, they sold it in pre rolled joints and it was actually quite nice. Until the revolving "ban and slightly modify the chemical" thing happened and people started jumping off buildings and passing out in alleys, which is not nice.
My God this is UK :O
Fulix Stoner The US is not much better in places,it’s just a lot bigger then the uk,so it doesn’t show up so much.
this is propaganda mostly
Not really.... UK isn't like this everywhere for fucks sake, have a think 😂
Kevin Belden It's not actually it's a lot worse than portrayed in this video, walk through the central streets of Manchester and see for yourself. You can't walk 5 yards down Market Street without being asked for spare change by this lot.
at least the walking dead zombies give you a chase,these just sit in their own shit,thats no fun.cant see it doing well on Netflix.
It’s crazy… some people refer to it as a zombie like drug
This is what happens when you ban substances that actually don't harm people. Nice job, government
How about talking about why they are homeless and in the first place, instead of why they take drugs to escape their homelessness?
Whoisafraidofreality because the reasons for both are the same
aprilsangels. Hi. I disagree.
The reason for homelessness is not solely Spice.
Whoisafraidofreality no reason to disagree. I never claimed the reason for homelessness is soley spice. Or spice at all for that matter.
aprilsangels. ok. Sorry. I did't understand your first response so.
Harry Roberts. Hi Harry. You truly are a visionary amoung mortal men.
damn this drug have seriously gone out of hand. I remember the first generation of spice back when I used to smoke it, yeah sure it was dangerous but it was waaaaay tamer
TheRealMensOfGenius ....why would you?
We had spice in America too. The kids could buy it from the store so it was always around (about 2010-ish). I did plenty. It wasn't crazy or anything. It was like somewhere between weed and a mild dissociative.
Tamer lol
There needs to be a massive overhaul of the drugs and it’s criminality and we need to adopt the Swiss system and treat people with healthcare not criminality
Our young men and women with no hope of work and home life ... Imported over population and deindustrialisation. We want our England back for her children to live in safely.
How much SPICE is there? Asking for a Harkonnen friend
Got this going on in the centre of Hull too now. It's disgusting when you have to expose kids and elderly people to this kind of behaviour. I wish they could be rounded up and disposed of.
The Hull problem is not the local homeless, its people 'released' from the 2 prisons who are just thrown out into a city they probably dont know anything about, nowhere to go, no friends or family who live there, and hence all they end up doing is sticking with fellow released prisoners and smoking the 'prison drug' - Spice.
This is what happens when they outlaw safe plants like cannabis and kratom

Old spice isbest for underarms....
legalize cannabis, problem solved
Yet another problem caused by keeping people from a harmless plant.
It's crazy that some govs are legalizing synthetic marijuana, yet still keep actual marijuana illegal. That's the power of big pharm unfortunately. Glad I live in Canada where as of Oct 1 I can legally grow my own without any sort of license, or perscription
This is England

Remember seeing kids buying spice from a shop where I live not long back. The best solution is for individuals to just say NO. criminalisation doesn't work. People need a better option in life. Easy for me to say I'm not living in a shop doorway with nowhere to wash or launder clothes.
Just say no.....what a great success that was in the 1980's.
The only way is education and harm reduction because humanity has been wanted to get wasted for millenia and will continue.
Who is the government to say you can do this but you can't do this.
Its sickening to see govt , people ignoring the drug problem in our societies...no one wants to speak about it....you ignore it your children are the ones who will suffer in future
Am I the only person noticing all these people walking past and looking down on the people in the streets?! Not stopping to help, not an ounce of concern. Horrible. Maybe a lot of people are self destructive, but that doesn't mean we can't help. Today's society stinks.
Those people are probably only just keeping themselves and their own families above the water. Sometimes you've got to leave the wounded whilst the battles on.
What would you have them do? Give them a hug? No one is forcing them to the streets they do that all by them self's.
Ya--take a few home
Kieran Shilston unless youve been a drug addict and around those people. Take my advice stay away from them. Let the dead lie cause they gone already

They should legalize spice so the homeless can do it in peace. Shameful to make garlic illegal
I went to see a singer and a comedian in Manchester and fell into a coma. Apparently, variety is the spice of life.
Blame the government, same as gambling problems,
I'll tell you what I want, what I really really want....spice.

Doesn't surprise me. England is one of the most depressing countries to live in. Concrete jungles are no place for humans to be happy.
If it's not legal,it cant be controlled. The biggest mistake was banning this substance. It's probably a lot stronger, know it's in the hands of dealers. I never heard of,nor seen anyone like this when you could buy it from legal high shops. Dealers make it stronger and more addictive. Make all drugs legal,and control them so they are safer. It's the only way to help people who get into difficulties when using drugs.
Simple solution decriminalize marijuana problem solved !!!Who would smoke k2 if they could walk around the block n grab some o.g. kush or get some wax n go home n rip a dab

I've only been to Manchester once, I had to resist the urge to wipe my feet on the way out. I felt dirty.
Ah the spice boys
silv3r s. 😂😂😂
Legalize and control MJ. We are doing it in Canada. I have never EVER heard of spice. Sounds like a nightmare. What is the worst case scenario if you smoke good natural weed? Eat chips...get leazy...laugh at every stupid joke...maybe a little paranoia while ur friends laugh at you. Legalize it and let's stop this insanity.
I was looking for the Old Spice add. My bad, I'll close the door on my way out. Thanks.
Oh how England has fallen :( I wish Western Europe was as it used to be.
God, I remember when this stuff was legal for a while in the US back in 2012 it was an unbelievably destructive substance 🤭
But Frank Herbert said that Spice extends life?!
There would be no need for mind altering substances if society wasnt so competitive, and judgemental.
Manchester used to be such a beautiful place.

Just dont do drugs SIMPLES ;-)
nw8000 drugs are great!
Waz wait until you have had one to many. Then get back to me
nw8000 I’ve taken more drugs then you can name and I’m just fine! Use never abuse! Majority of people take drugs mate. These people are just from broken homes, care homes, weak minded, abused and very susceptible to addiction..
Waz Its not for everyone its certainly not me
nw8000 that’s fair enough mate!
Oh NO! The character from Demon's Souls on the PS3 ended up hooked on Spice. At first it was just to help regenerate mana to cast spells. Fresh Spice recovered 50 mana points and helped him forget the harshness of being in Demonic world. But soon, oh how horribly soon, his Spice addiction took a turn for the worse. He found Old Spice, and after a few hits, not only did he have a full magic bar, he now WAS the demon. Killing innocent Tower of Latria Jailers with streams of fire, and anorexic skeletons in the shrine of storms with rays made of innocent souls. He was a full blown Spice addict. No longer was backstabbing fun to him, as he loved spice so much he couldn't stop. Long before Estus addiction there was Spice addiction. And and night, he smoked Dark Moon Grass to help him sleep easier. Dank Souls it is.
Crashed out on the floor and left yet if you are caught with a bit of weed you're nicked...
SPICE UP YOUR LIFE! Aaaaahhh....
Anyone who gets addicted to these kinds of drugs deserve what ever they get. Just say NO!
I like my weed. It will be legal in Canada this summer.
Hans Schtuk think about people who lace drugs and young people who are not the brightest. for a lot of people this is a victim drug not because they were looking for it.
Fuck legalization
Hans Schtuk you forget that some people take drugs to self medicate. Self medication isn't the way forward, however people do it when they can't get the help they need. Problem is that people get short term relief from their mental health problems and before they know it, boom they're addicted!
The simplistic view of a child.
Such a douche...
You’d be on spice too if you had to reside in Manchester
The results of prohibition have simply been an ever-growing number of drugs to evade laws every time new laws are made.
They ain’t really walking tho are they
And not dead
Can't be compared to heroin..heroin doesn't do that to you.
mcshane05 worse than heroin.
It's simular in that the withdrawals are bad
Jo Feeney/Mason yes u r right I spoke to a lady on spice and she said the withdrawal is 10 times stronger and worser and there is no substitute like there is woth the gear like subby or methadone it's terrible uo our town centre in Brum there's hundreds of them some are passed out in road n some are chewing their shoes!?? Madness man...
mcshane05, One of my cellies in prison was on spice and he was a former heroin user. He even said spice is way worse.
You kidding me.
Main area of use is Coop Bank, 1 Balloon Street, that place is full of Zombies these days.
People need to start taking control of their lives summet wrong if you gotta take a drug to make you feel better for 20 mins. Prolonged useage will leave you in a mess financially physically and psychology and possibly an early grave I've lost a few friends who took heroine. So next time someone offers you anything tell them where to go
duke black btw..get sterile losing bastards
