Reassess the classification of Cannabis and decriminalize it.

Closed 5,494 signatures

What the petition asks

We believe the Government should re-evaulate Cannabis' classification as a class B drug. We think that by legalising the drug in a controlled way across the country the tax could assist in paying off the country's debt and help repair the ongoing economic difficulties the UK faces.
