Rejected petition Legalise or decriminalise cannabis

We want the government to legalise or decriminalise cannabis

More details

we want cannabis legalised or decriminalised. This will help the British police force focus on actual crimes instead of going for people with a natural plant in their possession. We are living in the dark ages in 2024, whether it’s illegal or not people are still going to do it regardless so this government should finally be FOR THE PEOPLE and give them what we have wanted for years and years. There is no evidence to support it being harmful like ALCOHOL OR PRESCRIPTION DRUGS
