Nitazenes starting to appear more and more in media Media fears around fentanyl are not needed in the UK. We have our own problems to deal with - adulteration of the drug supply is very real. We need drug testing and safe supply to prevent more harm. theconversation.com/nitazenes-synt….

Apologies for the deliberate and intentional action done openly with other onlookers, especially officials and the photographer is culpable. Even the so called official apology is a disgrace to the government and people of Ireland, especially giving their own history. Shameful.
