Nutt initially released this scale in 2009 and was sacked by the government over it:&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/uk/health/article6894710.ece&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/uk/health/article68947...&lt;/a&gt;&lt;p&gt;Several other members of the drugs advisory board resigned in protest. It&apos;s a typical case of the government asking scientists to come up with evidence and then refusing to see the evidence when it is presented. &quot;You got us the wrong evidence! Get us another truth!&quot;&lt;p&gt;At the bottom of this article, you can find the suggested classifcation by harm:&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/6474053.stm&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/6474053.stm&lt;/a&gt;&lt;p&gt;Of course, the point is not to ban alcohol, but to have a more mature debate about drugs (and possibly to unban relatively harmless drugs such as LSD, Ecstasy, Cannabis...)</text><parent_chain></parent_chain></comment><story><title>Alcohol &apos;more harmful than heroin&apos;</title><url>http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-11660210</url></story>
