President Bush last week visited Africa, all the while dodging questions on bungled intelligence. Peter Cozens,
Executive Director of the Centre for Strategic Studies in Wellington, joins us to discuss.
A medically supervised Heroin Injecting Centre has opened in Sydney. What the hey?? We find out what this is all about.
Last week Peter Sharples spoke with Police at a Hui, promoting the dangerous effects of "P", or "Pure" a drug that is

the problems P's creating, and ways to combat it. And yes, we know we've been harping on about P for well over a year
now - but it is still a massive problem. We feel it is as much our responsibility to educate, as it is law enforcement's
to protect.
