What the petition asks
Marijuana has been scientifically proved to help in many physical and mental illnesses providing the sufferers with releif that many legal prescribed medications do not. I have Tourettes syndrome and have done since a very young age to me marijuana is more effective as any medications tested on me
Legalising Marijuana would not only help many people with health problems but would also generate a huge financial benefit to the United Kingdom as a whole. I personlly feel through the same being done in other parts of the world it would also lower drug crimes.
