Make the use of medical and recreational cannabis legal in the UK
Legalising cannabis could bring in up to £900m each year, save millions of pounds on the policing of a plant and offer unto 15,000 jobs.
A substance which is safer than alcohol and has many uses, some of which help the human body. Alcohol cause 2.5 million deaths worldwide a year. Cannabis causes none
Last year, Colorado, the first state to introduce legal recreational cannabis, brought $996m, $200m of which went to the school system.
So why shouldn't it be legal?
