difficult to answer because for a lot of people it is a fun lazy pastime, but i do believe that most also use it to force themselves to relax and dissociate and the addictive DRUG nature of marijuana is not talked about enough and dismissed. legalising it might also send the wrong message to an already heavily warped-by-social-media youth

1. Regulated Legalization with Strong Controls:
Marijuana could be legalized for adults, but with strict regulations on production, distribution, and sales. This would include age restrictions (e.g., 21+), limits on advertising to prevent encouraging use among young people, and clear regulations on dosage and potency.
2. Public Health Campaigns and Education:
Legalization should be accompanied by comprehensive public health campaigns that inform citizens about the potential risks of marijuana use, especially for vulnerable populations like teenagers or individuals with mental health conditio… Read more

It should be decriminalised not legalised.
If we decriminalised as opposed to legalising we would reduce prison numbers and I believe it will have a knock on in relation to people using marijuana as an alternative to alcohol. Less violent crime and domestic abuse could be a result.
Never seen a stoner in a punch up
@9NKM7MR2yrs2Y
@9NHR3SL2yrs2Y
Yes, but prohibit the use of it outside a licensed adults only venue or a private accommodation and release all serving sentences for possession and usage but do not promote marijuana as a good thing and ban all public advertising making the only way to purchase it through licensed businesses for people aged over 21.

Legalise, decriminalise & heavily tax (40%)
If we legalise, decriminalise & tax marijuana - the U.K. could see a 2 billion GDP profit per annum (according to various studies).
If we were to implore a similar system as the Dutch in the Netherlands this could reduce the strain we currently see on prisons, policing and costs to the economy - whilst also helping the nation with our current trillion pounds of debt.
It may also bring tourism, alongside boosting exportation and bolster job opportunities to farming communities with liscenced farmers (good for the environment as well as boosting specialist careers and our economic options).… Read more
This also means we would reduce the reliance on 100million pound costs per year on Dutch imports for medical marijuana based care such as Epidolex (epilepsy cbd based drugs) which instead could be home-grown and exported for profit as well as boosting our own U.K. farming.

Yes, and legalise all drugs. Abolition of alcohol in the US created gang wars until that was repealed. If we stop the criminalisation and take active control in helping addicts, all drug related crimes including many violent crimes will be reduced massively, just as they have been in Portugal and Switzerland.
