James Duffy

James Duffy was in the now defunct Strathclyde Police for 33 years. He spent 23 of those in the traffic department, regularly apprehending men on the M74 who were paying off their debts by driving drugs up to Scotland from Liverpool. Between 1997-2000 he was the deputy director of traffic training for the whole of Scotland, before retiring as an inspector in 2007. Today, based on his experience in the police enforcing prohibition, Jim remains one of LEAP UK's most authoritative speakers on the issue of decriminalised access to drugs.
