“..Most people over 25 might be forgiven for not knowing what ‘Meow Meow’ – Spice – and Kratom are..”

“..They’re three of hundreds of known ‘psychoactive substances’ – or highs – available for consumption.

Meow Meow is one brand of a synthetic stimulant drug formally known as mephedrone.

Spice – a brand of synthetic cannabinoids.

Kratom – a naturally growing hallucinogenic plant found in Southeast Asia -

- which no one seems to be worrying too much about in the tabloids.

What these three and many other drugs have in common is that your 15-year-old son or daughter could acquire them online with a few clicks on their iPhone.

Within days a small package could be sent from China – pass through the UK Border Forces’ grasps -

- and reach your child for their Friday night..”
