[Notch7]

Should Labour govt do this?

Legalising cannabis would raise far more than cutting winter fuel,allowance.

I’ve never taken any drugs so I’ve no skin in the game

It’s not a bad idea. It won’t stop the illegal side of it totally, but it would definitely be better for people buying it.

I see a lot of old grow houses and some are extremely dangerous.

And obviously there’s the tax side of it too.

What’s so funny ?

It’s obvious you like a smoke. Would it not be better to be legal ?

And you say you’re not a subtle troll….

Maybe not subtle after all.

I just love the thought of our Airline pilots/Bus drivers/Taxi drivers/ HGV drivers/ smoking dope legally.

How high would you like your surgeon?

But it wouldn't be legal while working, just like alcohol.

Road deaths prove how ineffective present laws are, do you wish to double the problem?

I suggest you read up on the known psychotic effects of Cannabis smoking....." Increased risk of anxiety and depression" etc.

How many extra deaths would you consider justifiable?

That's the problem with law - breakers : they tend to, by definition, break the law

Don't be silly.

The OP asked if cannabis should be legalised, which is a fair question, and I don't really know. I wouldn't rule it out just because a pilot might then get high and fly a plane.

Weed is the thin end of a wedge. At best it leads to complete apathy and sloth. More often it leads to hard drugs and bigger issues
