Rejected petition Decriminalise Marijuana

This petition calls for the decriminalisation of Marijuana.

More details

The war on drugs by the UK has been a failed venture that has led to a waste of tax payers money and police time. The UK is lagging behind the likes of other European countries with its stance on Marijuana.

Marijuana is less harmful than alcohol and tabbaco yet it is singled out because of archaic views that are not supported by the majority of citizens in the UK.
