Rejected petition Legalise cannabis for medical and recreational use.

Legalise cannabis for medical & recreational use. 5 grams would be the legal limit to bring outside the house & 1 plant per person. Cannabis is well known for its medical benefits, with impressive results and little to no side effects. It would bring in revenue, which could be used to fund the NHS.
