Rejected petition Legalise cannabis for recreational and medicinal use

cannabis is an amazing plant with loads of medicinal values, why keep it illegal if studies have proven for marijuana to have multiple medicinal values, its less harmful than legal drugs such as cigarettes. countries all around the world are legalising it, i think its time for the UK to do the same.
