Rejected petition Make weed and hash legal to buy above a certain age in the UK
Rejected on
I want to help the UK as so many people smoke weed and hash. This would reduce crime rates and the tax burden in the country.
The government would restore a lot of negative views from the vast population and help clean up some addicts lives. As well as provide many jobs and calm a lot of people down. This is partially due to global recent events which this country have a part to play within.
