I won’t mention any names but look, surprise, surprise Peter Debnam is using it as an excuse to have a press conference about the evils of injecting rooms:
A bin full of exposed syringes was planted near a Kings Cross injecting clinic to discredit the centre, its medical director says.
A Sydney newspaper today published photographs of about 100 “potentially deadly blood-tainted needles” dumped near the clinic and called for the centre to be shut down.

But Dr Ingrid van Beek, who heads the Sydney Medically Supervised Injecting Centre, said the syringes did not belong to the centre.
“It would appear likely to be a stunt,” Dr van Beek said.
“None of the many syringes had actually been used. They had been taken out of their packets, the caps were removed, and they were strewn on top of a garbage bin.
“There were no traces of blood or drugs in any of the syringes. They were most certainly not syringes used by drug users.
“They were also not the brand of syringes distributed in this area.”

NSW opposition leader Peter Debnam, who has previously called for the closure of the injecting room, held a press conference on the back of the Telegraph’s revelations earlier today.
I’m not suggesting for a minute that it was the Opposition however, who just happens to have an axe to grind and a large group of young buzzards who luurve the dirty work.
