I'm starting to feel left out. I feel I should disclose that I puffed on a bong oncr and had one or two hash cookies while at Oxford. To be honest, I didn't notice any result except for increased gigglyness. I'm not sure I'm convinced by all this 'I was wrong' stuff but at least they are being straightforward about it rather then all the beating around the bush that Cameron did.

The "I was wrong" rings very false to me too. But I rather like Alan Johnson's answer.

Well, the Ox ganj I tried there was weak.

The bit in this sort of confession which always sounds oddest to my ears is the "Yes, I took loads of mind-altering drugs / was regularly pissed up on booze / had energetic sex with several more than willing partners...but I didn't enjoy it, you know. It was wrong, of course."

I always think if someone had the "normal student experience" a la Cameron but claims it wasn't any fun, then I don't trust their judgement.

Excessive amounts of alcohol don't do much for me. tinyjo, I have never taken crack cocaine, speed, ecstasy or heroin. These things don't do much for me.

:( I have had pot quite a few times between the ages of 15 and 32. It started out by not really doing anything for me, then I got increasingly bad headaches and nausea. Dammit. How can I be a rebel when I'm allergic to illegal drugs?

That's it, I am officially boring. The closest I have ever come to cannabis was watering a friend's plant while she was away on holiday. It was really rather pretty.

I find it surprising that people get so upset about politicians admitting to engaging in fairly normal student activities.
