Rejected petition legalization of recreational cannabis laws

I very strongly believe that cannabis is far more safer than tobacco and alcohol and its been proven so,the legalization of marijuana would reduce drug dealers and it would save us billions of pounds in taxes, tobacco causes 480,000 deaths a year, alcohol 88,000 and marijuana 0 lets make a change

More details

people who work hard, should be able to enjoy the effects of marijuana without being prosecuted for it as there are many countries in the world where legalization is tried and tested and has made a big difference in the above points made, I've experienced it first hand and know that it works, please join me in the fight to legalize marijuana for recreational use.
