The consumption of cannabis is a recreational choice not a criminal act. To criminalise such a non-criminal action is not only expensive and counter productive it is also hypocritical in light of the legal availability of much more damaging drugs like alcohol. The money raised from taxing the legal sales of cannabis can be directed into proper drug treatment and rehabilitation services. Drug use is a medical and social issue not a criminal problem. Forcing supply to be controlled by criminal gangs is a big part of the problem and is no part of the solution. Society should be waging war on poverty not recreational drugs.Sign the petition and call on the Home Office to legalise, licence, regulate and tax cannabis but prohibit promotion or advertising.
