UK: Grass roots get political

Disability Now

Tuesday 01 Mar 2005

-----
The campaign to allow disabled people to relieve pain with cannabis is
being stepped up as the Legalise Cannabis Alliance (LCA) prepares
candidates for the general election.

Further delays in a government decision on whether to approve a cannabis
spray for treating multiple sclerosis and concerns over a major court
hearing involving five cases related to medicinal use, have prompted
disabled people to tackle the issue at the ballot box.

Chris Baldwin who uses cannabis to relieve pain from a mobility
impairment, is one of around 20 LCA members who intend to stand for
election in May.

Further candidates, and an election strategy, were expected to be
discussed at the LCA conference, which took place the day after DN went
to press.
