Petition Action

Have a referendum to legalize cannabis for 1 medicinal use 2 recreational use

Petition Details

Cannabis is now proven to have medicinal use and is far less harmful than alcohol and tobacco.
I believe that the strong majority do not support the current law and taxpayers no longer wish to pay for the immense cost of prohibition.

Additional Information

I am told it now costs about £45,000 to imprison someone for 12 months.
Over 1000 children die every day because they have not got clean drinking water.
Many children also die from malaria because they have not got £5 to spend on a mosquito net
Would parliament please prioritize what they spend our money on.
