Rejected petition: Legalize Cannabis to all members of the united kingdom

Rejected on

Instead of having people go to the black market, they should make Cannabis legal. It could bring good tax money, possibly even more than tobacco.

I think, as a country, we could benefit from the legalisation of THC cannabis
It could bring in more money to the government and also kill a part of the black market. We are not getting away from the fact majority of the UK smokes it.
By legalising it, we can give it a public health approach to THC/THCA. Not only that, it may start a domino effect and free up prisons a little bit. In late 2024, there were 1,073 prisoners in England and Wales. Westminster should legalise this.
