Rejected petition Legalise the Recreational use of Cannabis for adults in the UK

The Government still claims that cannabis has no medical benifits, despite the fact we as a country grow and distribute the most amount of "Medical" cannabis.
The facts are there, Cannabis is far safer than Alcohol and Tobacco. Yet we are still forced into the black market.
This is so wrong!

More details

Sooner or later the laws will have to change, as they are completely outdated and in humane.

The opioid epidemic is getting worse, but somehow you seem to think Cannabis is such a dangerous drug.
That couldn't be further from the truth, there's countless evidence that it can help with numerous mental and psyical illnesses, from Anxiety and depression to Cancer.

Do the right thing, please.
