Rejected petition Make the production, use and sale of Cannabis legal medicinally and commercially

Time and time again the Government has denied outright the medicinal and positive benefits of Cannabis. Having already rejected a petition by over 200,000 people, with nothing more than jumped-up spiel. Whilst hypocritically allowing alcohol, an extremely dangerous drug to be legal.

A peer reviewed document EVIDENCING the IMPORTANCE of medicinal cannabis. A drug that, even when a person is psychologically addicted CANNOT kill them, unlike alcohol.

This petition calls for an actual evidence based and peer reviewed answer from the Government as to the harmful effects of Cannabis and a justification to the blanket denial of legalisation.
