It could bring good tax money, possibly even more than tobacco.","additional_details":"I think, as a country, we could benefit from the legalisation of THC cannabis \r\n 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.\r\nBy 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.","committee_note":null,"state":"rejected","signature_count":6,"created_at":"2026-06-17T10:59:32.352Z","updated_at":"2026-07-03T14:31:20.540Z","rejected_at":"2026-07-03T14:31:20.543Z","opened_at":null,"closed_at":null,"moderation_threshold_reached_at":"2026-06-18T10:07:20.000Z","response_threshold_reached_at":null,"government_response_at":null,"debate_threshold_reached_at":null,"debate_scheduled_on":null,"scheduled_debate_date":null,"debate_outcome_at":null,"creator_name":null,"rejection":{"code":"duplicate","details":"Legalise and regulate cannabis for adults across the United Kingdom\r\nhttps://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/760967"},"government_response":null,"debate":null,"departments":[],"topics":[]}}}
