Very strongly agree

Yes, drug abuse should be treated as a health issue, not a criminal issue

Treating drug abuse as a health issue rather than a criminal one aligns closely with the progressive, human-centric policies that Volt UK advocates for.

Yes, this is necessary to reduce the drug overdose death rate

Slightly agree

No, but legalize drugs

While Volt UK supports progressive drug policies, their stance on the outright legalization of drugs is not clearly defined. They may support more research and a cautious approach to drug policy reform, focusing on decriminalization and harm reduction rather than full legalization without sufficient evidence of its benefits and risks.

Disagree

No

Given Volt UK's progressive stance and focus on evidence-based policy, it is unlikely they would outright oppose measures aimed at reducing harm and supporting public health, such as drug safe havens, without considering their potential benefits.

Strongly disagree

No, this would encourage drug use and lower funding for rehabilitation centers

This statement contradicts the harm reduction and public health approach that a party like Volt UK, with its progressive and evidence-based policy orientation, would likely support. They would probably argue that safe havens can coexist with and complement rehabilitation efforts.
