What the petition asks

Children and adults alike require the medicinal benefits of this natural substance as an essential foundation for living a normal life. It is barbaric that this is currently withheld from the majority of people with perfectly treatable conditions.
It is shocking that people should feel the need to have to smuggle in a natural plant to treat their children: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-kent-47839072
