Closed Legalise Psilocybin Mushrooms

Closed on

Dear Theresa May, UK Home Secretary,

On the day that your government has chosen to produce another TCDO against a range of Novel Psychoactive Substances, I would like to petition you to reconsider the legal restrictions against psilocybin mushrooms, on the following grounds.

1) These naturally occuring psychedelic intoxicants rarely cause lasting harm to individual users and often bring great relief from illness or the stresses of everyday life.

2) Seeking the effects brought by the above illegal drug by using uncontrolled NPS's such as the NBOMe' series banned today is much more dangerous and that government legislation will continue to conflict with demand until the laws against well researched and ultimately less dangerous drugs are repealed.

Thank you for your time and attention on this matter,

Yours sincerely

Simon Massey
