Relegalise the possession of fresh (unprepared) psilocybin ('magic') mushrooms.
Psilocybin mushrooms have thousands of years of recorded human use. Studies indicate that they help sufferers of mental illness, depression, anxiety and many other medical conditions.
They are also used in many spiritual and religious practices and remain legal around the world.
Psilocybin mushrooms are non-toxic, are not addictive and have not been shown to have any detrimental effect on long-term mental health they grow naturally within the UK and continue to be sold legally in the Netherlands with no adverse consequences.
They have significant potential as medicines, with psilocybin being investigated as a treatment for depression, anxiety, addiction and PTSD. Research shows that just a single dose of psilocybin lifts anxiety and depression for six months or longer.
