Rejected petition Legalise cannabis for recreational use
Legalise the use of cannabis in a recreational way, allowing use of it for its benefits to be regulated
More details
Because it has many benefits to those using it, including those with back pain, other forms of pain, or just to enjoy a social leisure.
We allow alcohol which when consumed in high amounts causes fights, and other misbehaviour socially on our streets.
It has more benefit to come in under certain regulations and criteria, like organic strict rules and only allow it to be grown naturally, taking off sprayed and possible had strains off our streets, this would get rid of many charges a year.
