Lib Dem's Pro Pot Drugs Policy....

April 21, 2010 - PRLog -- Lib Dem's Pro Pot Drugs Policy....
the important bit-

Retaining the classification of cannabis as a Class C drug, in line with the
recommendations of the Advisory Council on the Misuse of Drugs (ACMD), which
the Government ignored.

Adopting a policy of not prosecuting possession for own use, social supply to
adults or cultivation of cannabis plants for own use.
Repealing Sections 8 (c) and (d) of the Misuse of Drugs Act so that it is no longer a
crime for the occupier or manager of premises to permit someone to use cannabis
on those premises.

Permitting medical use of cannabis derivatives, subject to appropriate
pharmaceutical controls and the successful conclusion of current clinical trials.
In the longer term, seeking to put the supply of cannabis on a legal, regulated
basis, subject to securing necessary renegotiation of the UN Conventions. The
Global Cannabis Commission report of September 2008, published as part of the
2009 UN drug policy review supports a policy of regulated availability to minimise
the harms associated with cannabis abuse, adding that much of this harm is a
result of prohibition itself.

Reform excessive and counterproductive criminal penalties by:
Ending the use of imprisonment for possession for own use of illegal drugs of any
class.

tell everyone, and email this all you know... this is what we have been waiting for, there are many, many of us from all walks of life, and let's face it some liberty is better than no liberty and that is exactly what you will get with the rest.

1 in 10 people in the u.k. use cannabis..... does that mean that 10% of society are criminals?  it does if one of the other two parties get in! think about it, the majority of people don't even vote so if the 10% that use cannabis do vote then its game over... and some precious little liberty at last!

from the horse's mouth "Be assured that the Lib Dems will continue to press for a drugs policy based on scientific evidence, not fear."


Let Us Declare Nature As Legitimate!  Free The Weed and Vote Lib Dem :)
