A UN report says cocaine use in Europe has reached record levels with an estimated 3.5 million people taking the drug - a quarter of worldwide users.
Too many professional and educated people are using it and often denying their addiction, the UN Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC) says.
It complains that young people are confused by the uncritical way in which the media reports celebrity drug abuse.
The report also warns of a continuing rise in cannabis use around the world.
Apparantley, according to a news report I read last night, the UK has the highest level of cocaine abuse in Europe.....something to be proud of I don't think!! _________________ Cycodave
