Listen Back: 'Free' bag of drugs, "costliest thing you will ever get" . "That 'free' bag of drugs will be the costliest thing you will ever get".
That's the warning to young people from Aontú Senator Sarah O' Reilly who has spoken of her worry and deep fear for young people when they are out and about socialising in the region such is the proliferation of drugs in the constituency of Cavan/Monaghan.
She says there isn't a village in the area that is immune to the scourge of drugs, adding that like all parents she is really worried about young people who are trying to find their way as they are so vulnerable to the huge peer pressure to try drugs.
Senator O'Reilly says drugs are normalised to the same extent as alcohol in some places and this is deadly dangerous. She spoke with Ronan Gargan earlier today.
