Legalise Marijuana for medicinal use in the UK

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

So many people in the uk right now are having to break the law and buy unregulated marijuana to eliminate a lot of symptoms and illnesses.

The relief some people get is so great that they risk breaking the law as it outweighs the punishment.

Help people use it legally and safely.
There is so many stories and so many cases out there where people have came off of more damaging pharmaceuticals as the marijuana works so well - it's a natural beautiful thing - let people use what nature intended.
