Nick Clegg says the "war on drugs is not working", but Peter Hitchens says "there has been no war".

The columnist said cannabis has been "effectively a decriminalised drug in the country for many years", and the number of prosecutions has been 鈥渄ropping like a stone鈥�.

The pair spoke to Daily Politics presenter Jo Coburn about what the UK, and some other governments, have and have not been doing about the prohibition of drugs.
