Debate will clear the haze about cannabis

Now, is the time for people to stand up and support legalising cannabis. That is why the Legalise Cannabis Alliance are supporting environmentalist Buster Nolan as PPC to force the debate and clear the smoky haze surrounding the cannabis hemp plant.

In 1999 Home Office Statistics 100,000 people were arrested for Cannabis related offences. Why?

It is true some criminals also use cannabis, However The vast majority of cannabis users are no different than their non-using peers. Otherwise law-abiding citizens who use cannabis are not part of the crime problem, and we must stop treating them like criminals.

If you think that the laws controlling cannabis serves no legitimate purpose I invite you to join a fun day in London on May 5th where Buster and tens of thousands of like minded people of all political persuasions and religions will be voting with their feet by 'strolling and partying' from Kennington Park to Brockwell Park for the annual Cannabis March and Festival.
