Petition Action

The legalisation of recreational use of marijuana in the English capital.

Petition Details

Decriminalisation of recreational use of marijuana in London. As seen with the advances made in the specific field by the dutch government, legalisation of THC may have a positive economical impact; as well as lowering the crime rate.

Additional Information

By legalising marijuana, crime rates would lower as dealers could be replaced by trained professionals; lowering the chances of potential robbery, or gang activity due to the drug being illegal. As mentioned before, our country would further boost the influx of tourism as seen in such cities as Amsterdam; which would further boost the national economy.
