Government efforts to clamp down on the sale of dangerous substances - known as legal highs - are failing, a think-tank has warned.
The Centre for Social Justice - set up by Work and Pensions Secretary Iain Duncan Smith - says the UK is a leading hub for selling the drugs online.
Last year, 52 people in England and Wales died after taking legal highs, up from 28 the previous year.
Ministers said they were banning whole groups of drugs to tackle the problem.
