Legalise Cannabis in the UK
Rejected

What the petition asks
Cannabis has been proven to be less harmful than alcohol and tobacco and yet its still illegal to buy. A large amount of the tax payers money is being wasted on a war thats never going to be won when we could profit and educate people on it instead. Let us at least vote on it.
