Yesterday critics and experts accused Channel 4 of turning Drugs Live: Cannabis On Trial into little more than a stunt designed to boost ratings and glamorise the Class B drug. The programme sees 22 volunteers including former Royal Correspondent Jennie Bond, presenter Jon Snow and former Tory MP Matthew Parris take two sorts of cannabis - hash and high-strength skunk - plus a placebo. Each has tests including a brain scan, while changes to their mood, memories and emotions are monitored. Professor David Nutt, 63, who was sacked as the Government's drugs tsar in 2009 for saying cannabis is less harmful than alcohol and nicotine, will appear as an expert, with University College London professor Val Curran. Professor Nutt added in a lecture that he feels Scotland should support a cannabis caf茅 culture and that the drug should be used in medical treatment for certain conditions.

As part of a new campaign, charity Bobath Scotland say that 3 in 4 adults with cerebral palsy experience chronic pain but are told 'it's just part of the condition' and to 'deal with it.'.
Chronic pain affects around 800,000 people in Scotland and is often attached to other conditions, such as arthritis, cancer, back pain and MS.
