Jagging Up With Amy Winehouse

After Keith Richards’ views, Sir Mick Jagger, 64, who was jailed in 1967 for possessing drugs, opines: “When we were experimenting, little was known about the effects. In our time, there were no rehab centres. Anyway, I didn’t know about them.”

So not quite as the headline promises.

Indeed, many may wonder if Winehouse should stay on the mind-altering drugs, or at last pass them on to other budding performers who want to be as famous and successful as she and the Rolling Stones.

Perhaps the UK’s performing arts industry could invest in a small poppy holding in Afghanistan, a laboratory in rural Essex or a cannabis farm in Hackney and drop product in the wannabes’ water?

The one proviso would be that all non-talent stays off the drugs, lest no work get done and the resulting productions resemble nothing more than a very long drone…
