Poll: Do you think National’s ‘War on P’ policy will reduce drug harm?
National has resurrected its "War on P" with a promise to fund an intensive treatment programme and 13 detox beds to reduce methamphetamine harm.
The party's drugs policy, launched by National leader Judith Collins in Hawke's Bay on Monday, includes a promised $50 million in contestable funding for community-based harm reduction programmes, and more drug dogs at airport and ports to stop drugs entering the country.
“We can either decide that we’re going to lose the war, or we’re going to decide to take it seriously,” Collins said.
“The use of this drug tears families apart, fuels violence, enriches criminals and destroys lives. We cannot tolerate the continued misery this drug causes, which leads to rising levels of violence and poverty, and widespread social harm.”

Heartbeats Cardiac Support and Rehab Group at St Heliers Community Centre
Heartbeats, the largest non-profit, community-led cardiac support group in New Zealand is meeting at the St Heliers Community Centre this Thursday, 12th February at 10:00am.
Meetings are informal, friendly and open to ALL heart patients, heart event survivors, their partners, family and whanau.
Having heart disease or facing major heart surgery can be lonely and very frightening. Come along and meet heart people who have all gone through the same thing, or are currently dealing with arrythmias, diabetes, COPD, or very high or low blood pressure.
Heartbeats is not a social group (although we are very social). It is a full support group for education, mental health support and helping with recovery and rehabilitation.
Hope to see you are our St Heliers/Glendowie Heartbeats launch on Thursday.
