Petition Action

Repeal the Psychoactive Substances Act 2016.

Petition Details

Repeal the Psychoactive Substances Act 2016. Legal highs have been around for 20 years until the unsubstantiated hype of dangers.

We are in an era where countries are criminalising drugs and with this act the UK has gone backwards because of unsubstantiated hype.

Additional Information

We now know that former legal highs are available illegally and have become more dangerous. The industry still exists. It is wasting police time and resources when we should be focusing on terror and more important matters. Even the UN says drugs should be decriminalised.

UK Parliament has made more people into criminals when it is supposed to be criminal justice reform. The Equalities Commission & the PM said coloured people are more likely to go to jail this is racist legislation.
