Darwin set to become Australia’s Amsterdam

The Network Against Prohibition’s candidate for Lord Mayor in the Darwin City Council elections has called on the NT Government to re-legalise all drugs to enable the promotion of drug tourism in the Top End of Australia.

Highway said “If elected I will use my position as Lord Mayor to accelerate the Network Against Prohibition campaign for the re-legalisation of all drugs. Once this process is complete, it is hoped that Darwin will become Australia’s Amsterdam.”

“Drug tourism will attract thousands of tourists from around the globe. Cannabis would be sold from local cafés and other drugs would be available from licensed sellers. Darwin’s nightlife and dance party scene would expand rapidly.”

Stuart Highway is also kean to reduce racism in the NT by fostering relations with our neighbours. The NAP team, if elected, will lobby for the introduction of a hydrofoil ferry service between Darwin and the cities of Kupang and Dili.
