@markymark7803 whataboutism doesn't make an action correct. Countries and markets change and the Brits should have accepted that. In modern times they would. I get you're some anglophile, or some British person hung up on the past. But what you're condoning is imperialism and someone attacking your country. You're saying it's okay for the U.S to attack your country if it felt like it. Whether drugs are illegal or not, they often need to be heavily controlled. Even now, doctors aren't allowed to give some drugs because they've proven too addictive. You can't be so rightwing or patriotic and jingoistic to not recognize when you're country does dumb shit.
