Eight years ago this month, Ireland accidentally legalised a load of drugs for an entire day.
On the 10th of March, 2015, the country's 1977 Misuse of Drugs Act was found unconstitutional by the Irish Court of Appeal, making the drugs it prohibited – including ecstasy, ketamine, crystal meth, mushrooms and a weird class B drug that some people called "Jeff" – technically legal. Emergency legislation was rushed through to prohibit those drugs, but it came with a provision that it would only take effect one day after it was signed.
On the evening of the 10th, the legislative slip-up attracted hundreds to an event named the “Loophole Pop Up Party” at a bar in Dublin – many of them keen to make the most of the situation before it was once again legally not OK to snort lines of MDMA off public benches.
Almost a decade later, magic mushrooms, ketamine and MDMA have been legalised for medical use in a number of countries – but "Jeff", God bless him, remains missing in action.
