A Greater Manchester MP is calling for spiking to be made a crime after almost 5,000 cases were reported in the last year.
Yasmin Qureshi, MP for Bolton East and Shadow Women and Equalities Minister, expressed concerns about the number of people who had fallen victim to the terrifying trend during a debate in Westminster on Wednesday (11 January).
It comes after it emerged that in her constituency of Bolton alone, there were over 50 reported cases of spiking - almost five people a month - in the last twelve months.
