Headlined 'Voice Star’s Cannabis Row – Bressie: Make Drugs Legal', the Irish Daily Mirror front page piece stems from comments Bressie made in our interview about cannabis.

I’ve never been uncomfortable in the company of somebody who’s high on marijuana. Stress will kill you, cannabis won’t. Saying it can lead to other drugs is the weakest, most pathetic argument. The ‘gateway’ thing has been totally disproved. It makes so much sense to tax and regulate it.”
