Why does the UK want to end drug testing at festivals when it clearly saves lives?

 

The UK government has not explicitly stated that it wants to end drug testing at festivals. However, there has been some debate around the issue. 

Some argue that drug testing provides a harm reduction approach and can save lives by identifying harmful or contaminated substances. Others argue that it may also encourage drug use and send mixed messages around the legality of drug use. 

The UK government's priority is to reduce the harm caused by drug misuse and addiction, and it may consider all available options to achieve this goal.
