The taxpayers of this country must be absolutely outraged to see in today's Sunday Express Mix Magazine that the Entertainment Company - a special purpose State Enterprise- funded the launch of Marlon Asher's new album. For those who don't know, Asher is the self proclaimed ganja farmer. That may not be a problem, but at the launch, our tax money funded his posters, which show him with a spliff between his lips and a marijuana leaf prominently displayed in the corner of the poster.
Not only is marijuana illegal in this country- the last time I checked- but the State funds and fully supports a number of initiatives aimed at keeping narcotics off the streets and out of people's hands. In fact the Prime Minister is on record as saying that the out of control crime is fuelled by the trade in narcotics. Isn't it therefore outrageous that Alvin Daniell and his Board at the Entertainment Company - a lawyer included- could agree to use taxpayers funds to pay for this rubbish?

I would really like to ask Alvin Daniell, the same man who pens so many nation building songs, to tell me whether he would use his personal funds to support a culture of drug use?
