Yes, legalise, tax and regulate it as well as releasing those serving non-violent drug related sentences.

 @DAVIEBrexit answered…3yrs3Y

Only medicinal cannabis through prescription allowed. Otherwise maintain it as Class B as the drug links lead to psychological and mental harm and has been linked to various criminal acts.

 @9DWNTTQLabourfrom New Jersey  answered…3yrs3Y

 @96H6L7Zanswered…4yrs4Y

At the end of the day it's still a drug that's highly addictive. No.

 @novawilsoncommented…7mos7MO

#1 Engaged Marijuana

Marijuana isn't addictive at all, nevermind "highly."

No form of cannabis has any addictive qualities.

 @B6XH3YCanswered…7mos7MO

Scientific studies have shown time and again, the negative effects of marijuana pale in comparison to alcohol, or even cigarettes. If there is a ban on one, a ban should be placed on all 3.

 @B6NP32FReform UKanswered…8mos8MO

NOOO, Marijuana harms your body also causes negative externalities, must have outright ban

Burn all the marijuana in UK
Launch ultimatum banning the exports of marijuana to the UK, any country found exporting marijuana to the UK will get 1 billion % tariffs on their marijuana.

 @B4QCCJManswered…1yr1Y

no, decriminalise it but make it so when people are caught with it they have to go to therapy to help them.

 @B42LVJ7answered…1yr1Y

They let us take alcohol and cigarettes which causes addiction and thousands of deaths per year. Why shouldn't this be allowed?

 @9C3SC2QLabouranswered…3yrs3Y

Yes but can only be consumed in private clubs and cafés and the smell cannot be allowed to reach others' residences.

 @96F7Z7DGreenanswered…4yrs4Y

Yes, immediately release anyone serving time solely for drug offenses and legalise, tax, and regulate marijuana instead of criminalizing it

 @9CDBPH9Labouranswered…3yrs3Y

Treat it the same as alcohol. Some bad people will use the drug and use it as an excuse for their behaviour

 @BBYPV52answered…1mo1MO

Legalise it but only for consumables, it should be banned for smoking or vaping as this forces others to breath it in regardless of their stance

 @BB749ZHanswered…2mos2MO

yes, but selling drugs knowing they were made of cheap harmful substances that ended up killing people is still an offence. buying them is not the issue, making ones with cheap materials is.

 @B9V8ZBBanswered…3mos3MO

yes for medical purposes, anyone receiving punishment for its use outside of medical reason should be helped (rehabilitation) rather than criminalised.

 @B9PSBK2answered…3mos3MO

Yes but only an Amsterdam style system such as only being able to do it in a coffee shop and smoking cannabis outside of the shop is illegal.

 @B9NDZSKanswered…3mos3MO

mainly for medical use but it has been proved by many reports to be the sam level drug as alcohol is

 @B9DGKY7answered…3mos3MO

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

 @B9BV4QRanswered…3mos3MO

yes but only the plant not with the current amount of added steriods and other stuff to help weed stronger just the orginal plant.

 @B98FFXQWomen's Equalityanswered…3mos3MO

I believe that marijuana should be legal as alcohol is way more dangerous than smoking weed and alcohol can make people more vicious when marijuana calms people down

 @B978ZSCanswered…4mos4MO

im in the middle about it. if someoneis addicted they should be allowed small doses that are monitered and are soley to help them get off the drug. medically it should be legal.

 @B8WLBTY answered…4mos4MO

No, unless it is medically prescribed by a medical professional. if not then the public access will be high causing children to get and do more mind altering drugs

 @B7WDNSPanswered…6mos6MO

Yes, but only for medical use and release anyone convicted of dealing it if they've served more than 6 months already.

 @B7R47ZRGreenanswered…6mos6MO

For recreational use it should be legal, however it should be sold by an official store/from a pharmacy rather than being able to be sold by anyone.

 @B7DCP6Qanswered…7mos7MO

Non violent drugs should be legal but as long as its in healthy doses solely distributed by pharmaceuticals

 @B6W9ZJ9answered…8mos8MO

legalise it as people who will use it will use anyway, and it is more dangerous, but advise against it like smoking, and make it a social taboo rather than encouraged, so rebellious groups of peoples lives arent ruined by its effects or prison, and can be reformed.

 @B6V6J2QConservativeanswered…8mos8MO

It should be legal but it should have the same rules as smoking and centres for addiction rehabilitation should be made to reduce demand and use for marijuana due to its health risks, same as smoking.

 @B6FM2KLLiberal Democratanswered…9mos9MO

Yes but in small amounts and keep record of who purchases it and when and how much they withdraw and put warnings on labels like they have on cigarettes and advertisement.

 @B4J7FWXanswered…1yr1Y

Changes should be made to target rehabilitation and helping addicts rather than punishing non-violent non-distributing users

 @B5B8T8QGreenanswered…12mos12MO

Decriminalise and legalise and remove any drug offences off of criminal records as well as releasing them from prison

 @B4GGX67answered…1yr1Y

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

 @B2WS4VNWomen's Equality answered…1yr1Y

Yes, and immediately release anyone serving time solely for drug offenses

Yes I do support this. If a person decides to have a smoke of weed then that is there decision, and believe me... a stoned person is definitely not going out to commit burglaries ect after smoking a joint or two.

 @B2RQTBTReform UKanswered…1yr1Y

Yes because it exists in some cultures that were invited over to join this country. You can’t pick and choose your favourite parts.

 @9SBTMJPanswered…2yrs2Y

No, and ban it immediately, increasing penalties for violent drug offenders and reforming the healthcare system by abolishing the use of drugs and instead using prescriptions that are not dangerous at all.

 @9QYFPYKanswered…2yrs2Y

No because i don’t want society to drug dependent losers but slightly less Criminalisation while also seeing it as a health issue.

 @9QTRJH7answered…2yrs2Y

Yes however the promotion of products containing Marijuana, cultivation or unlicensed selling should be restricted. Marijuana use should be addressed by authorities as a health addiction issue not a criminal issue.

 @B2PJ87Y from Guam  answered…1yr1Y

Should the u.s president has moved less non drugs is offense issued by Australia prime minister a trackers systems aren't criminals habit

 @B327CQLLabouranswered…1yr1Y

Yes, and tax and regulate instead of criminalizing it. Also anyone serving time for none violent drug offenses should be released

 @9QRGKV3Labouranswered…2yrs2Y

Yes, legalize, tax, and regulate marijuana, and simultaneously ensure comprehensive public health education and robust regulatory frameworks

 @9Q7BWRYanswered…2yrs2Y

There should be a proper public consultation on this. If this indicates there may be a majority in favour of the legalisation of marijuana then the government should have a referendum on this matter.

 @9N7DJSFanswered…2yrs2Y

Yes, legalise, tax, and regulate it and use the funds for healthcare support for users. Meanwhile increase penalties on those who transport, or illegally sell it.

 @9N5WY2Qanswered…2yrs2Y

No, legalise, tax and regulate it and make sure that unregulated sale and transportation is heavily penalised.

 @9MYS9MJanswered…2yrs2Y

Yes, legalise, tax and regulate- only use in certain places- must be of certain age, penalties for anyone using outside of set places/ages

 Deletedanswered…2yrs2Y

Yes, and immediately relase anyone serving time solely for drug offenses. Legalise all other drugs and completely unregulate their markets

 @9MV4FB5answered…2yrs2Y

Yes, but only for medical use and strictly controlled so that those actually need it and do not manipulate the system to get it at taxpayers expense

 @99MMSTPanswered…3yrs3Y

 @8XVZHXRanswered…4yrs4Y

yes, and immediatly release anyone serving time solely for this drug offense (distributing, smoking, and possesion)

 @8V2Y7PZanswered…5yrs5Y

Adopt the Amsterdam Cafe's and increase tougher penalties for those smoking in public places.

 @8TG49FSanswered…5yrs5Y

 @8CNRXLKanswered…6yrs6Y

Yes, allow it to be sold in private businesses like cigaretes and work towards releasing offenders whose only crime was selling or dealing weed.

 @9Q4D5JYGreenanswered…2yrs2Y

Yes. Release anyone serving time for drug offences and legalise, tax and regulate marijuana instead of criminalising it.

 @9PTXJQManswered…2yrs2Y

Instinctively no, as I don't like smelling smoke. However, I recognise that the evidence suggests that decriminalisation of drugs leads to the best social outcomes.

 @9PNL77Danswered…2yrs2Y

Yes for medical use, and a limited amount for recreational use, but increase education on the risks of psychosis in young men who smoke too much

 @9PHJ3HZanswered…2yrs2Y

Yes, but it should only be allowed to be used on designated leisure locations such as certain bars and cafes.

 @9PDDM2Qanswered…2yrs2Y

Yes, but only with the agreement of not smoking in public. And have it be pure rather than chemical.

 @9NY96K6answered…2yrs2Y

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

 @9NKM7MRanswered…2yrs2Y

Yes but only for medical use where the evidence proves it is effective and where patients can give informed consent

 @9NJ99J6Greenanswered…2yrs2Y

No. There are too many people playing the system claiming they need it. It should only be legalised for people who need it for medical reasons and the process for prove of that should be very in-depth to ensure no miss use.

 @9NHR3SLanswered…2yrs2Y

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.

 @9MQG69Yanswered…2yrs2Y

No, but decriminalise it and release people imprisoned for possession of small amounts for personal use.

 @9KVKP6KGreenanswered…2yrs2Y

We should spend more time taxing and regulating usage of similar addictive substances such as vaping and only then decide on whether it is possible to safely decriminalise marijuana.

 @9KDZ3C7answered…2yrs2Y

Yes, and legalise, tax, and regulate marijuana instead of criminalizing it

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.

 @9HP8X9Tanswered…2yrs2Y

No, limited / home use without impact on others and children where medical conditions are not exacerbated

 @9H47YKGanswered…2yrs2Y

It should be legalised, heavily taxed and restricted to usage on private property which permits it themselves, and if these private properties are businesses and not residential they should be marked 18+ so children are not influenced, it should also be advised against in the same way smoking is.

 @9GL5V37Sinn Féinanswered…2yrs2Y

yes Cannabis should be legalised, regulated, taxed in a similar way to tobacco. Stop calling it Marijuana, thats a made up racist name for a the plant from America to make it sound 'foreign'

 @9GDFVSRanswered…3yrs3Y

Legalise, tax, regulate, release of prisoner and immediate wipe of criminal records of non violent cannabis offences

 @9FVKSV6answered…3yrs3Y

Yes and regulate it, like tobacco and alcohol. Also, release people in prison for possession and use of it. Only dealers should be imprisoned.

 @9BYM5Y9answered…3yrs3Y

Yes, legalise, tax, and regulate but have establishments for public consumption

 @9BWBY8VLiberal Democratanswered…3yrs3Y

yes and immediately release anyone serving time solely for drug offences and legalise, tax, and regulate marijuana instead of criminalising it

 @98CPNG4answered…3yrs3Y

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.

 @95Z47RKanswered…4yrs4Y

Yes but only for people the age of 18 or over as they have the right to their own decision

 @8QMGFMKanswered…5yrs5Y

Yes, legalise and tax it (similar to the 'set-up' in the Netherlands) but only allow its use in legalised premises (like 'beer gardens') as to not encroach on conservative/family neighborhoods and to ensure everyone has their space while respecting one another

 @9Q3CF47answered…2yrs2Y

Yes but only if significant education is provided of the impacts that it has on brain health, and should be encouraged only for medicinal use

 @9PWZQWZanswered…2yrs2Y

Yes, for medical use. Marijuana and drugs in general tend to harm individuals (mentally, physically, etc.)

 @9P8DX49answered…2yrs2Y

Possession/use should be decriminalised when done privately but not in public due to odor and antisocial behaviour. Distribution should be illegal

 @9NZZK8Canswered…2yrs2Y

Yes, it should be seen as a health problem with funding not a criminal problem. It should be treated.

 @9NZTZTWanswered…2yrs2Y

Yes, under strict control for medicinal usage only, and also increase penalties where found to be a contributing factor in a crime.

 @9NRNBG8answered…2yrs2Y

Yes, but if used in built up areas only allow it in non smoking form like tablets so other people don't have to breathe it in

 @9NM3C9Sanswered…2yrs2Y

Yes, but it should be treated the same way as alcohol, I.e. you should not drive under the influence.

 @9HZKYP2 answered…2yrs2Y

Young people in particular should be educated about the true harms that this drug does to people's mental health and their life chances of they become addicted while young.

 @9NXBTLSLabouranswered…2yrs2Y

Yes but quality should be regulated and users should agree to be monitored for psychosis and other medical diseases and should not be allowed in homes, only in designated pubs.

 @9NMCHHSanswered…2yrs2Y

Yes but find a strain of it that does not absolutely stink! I don't mind weed but its smell is disgusting.

 @9M2N72WGreenanswered…2yrs2Y

Yes, but not in a form which means it is cut with tobacco (for example, it can be added to food/drink)

 @9FJNLJHanswered…3yrs3Y

Decriminalising should be trialled for a period of time, same with ecstasy

 @9LC6KX5Greenanswered…2yrs2Y

Yes, and immediately release anyone serving time solely for drug offenses

YES, AND IMMEDIATELY RELEASE ANYONE SERVING TIME SOLELY FOR DRUG OFFENSES

Weed needs to be legalised, taxed and decriminalised. There are so many issues with black market weed right now - with people covering it with salt, bicarb, silica and other powders to try to bulk it out and make it look more crystalised. People will likely start dying soon if this mess isn't sorted out.

However, weed is already legal for medical use. Many people get it prescribed already via private clinics, so some of these answers are redundant.

 @95VYTZTanswered…4yrs4Y

decimalize having and using, legalize medical use and regulate a medical source of production

 @95TBFCTanswered…4yrs4Y

Yes legalise immediately, tax and regulate and release anyone serving time for marijuana offences.

 @95KK3SJanswered…4yrs4Y

Yes, and release anyone serving time solely for drug offenses AND tax and regulate marijuana AND do the same for all other drugs.

 @95BRHC7answered…4yrs4Y

No, it could encourage more people to say they need it for medical reasons when they are addicts.

 @9488NR5answered…4yrs4Y

Yes, but only decriminalise and have education and regulation, also awareness about risk of psychosis

 @947VFZQanswered…4yrs4Y

 @93W6KCJanswered…4yrs4Y

No, it should be decriminalised and live in a grey area where it is not an offence to carry it or sell it
