Psilocybin mushrooms have had documented use by mankind all over the world for hundreds if not thousands of years. They continue to be used today in religious or spiritual ceremony, as medicine or in recreational settings. Their classification as a Class A illegal substance in the UK is ludicrous, myopic and unjust. Consenting adults should be free to use these safe & naturally occurring, native or non-native fungi either as part of a spiritual practice, medicinally or in recreational settings.
