Why it was rejected
It was not clear what the petition asked the UK Government or Parliament to do.
We can't accept your petition because we aren't sure of the circumstances you want cannabis to be legal in.
You could start a new petition calling for a referendum on legalising cannabis for medicial reasons if that's what you'd like to see.
