A ‘constitutional loophole’ has meant that drugs like MDMA, ketamine and crystal meth are legal until Thursday, March 12.
The current drug laws were found to be ‘unconstitutional’ due to the fact that they were made without going through parliament back in the 1970s.
The drugs’ illegal status was reverses in order to rush in new legislation, but a time gap has led to the temporary oversight.
Drugs such as heroin and cocaine have not bee affected by the loophole.
Young people are still being warned of the dangers of taking drugs, especially due to the fact that many drug users do not know exactly what they are taking.
This is something that many high profile medics want to change, with increasing support gathering behind a movement campaigning to overhaul drug laws in the UK.
Last year, Dr Christian referred to current drug laws as ‘hypocritical’.
He said: “When you make something illegal you drive it underground so the quality of it is unknown. You have no idea what you’re actually buying- people will sell anything.”
Dr Christian continued: “By banning things you’re creating more drugs. The whole reason we have these designer drugs is because we made the big 5 (cocaine, heroin, marijuana, ecstasy and LSD) illegal. To get around that people design more. Along comes the next thing and the next thing.”
