Letter: MP Eric Pickles has no compassion

Don Barnard LCA Press Officer

Essex Enquirer

Thursday 10 Jul 2003

----
ERIC PICKLES, MP for Brentwood and Ongar, said that reclassification of
cannabis is not a positive move (Enq 26 June). I agree. What is needed
is a law that is fair, just and workable, and reclassification fails on
all counts.

If cannabis is easily available under the present system of prohibition,
the answer, surely, is to introduce a legal regulated controlled supply
and remove criminal sanctions against those who use it for recreational
and/or medical reasons.

I concede that Mr Pickles didn't know all the facts at the time.
However, I suggest it would have been appropriate to make himself aware,
instead of making personal attack.

The Legalise Cannabis Alliance is a registered UK political party. Visit
www.lca-uk.org .
Incidentally, I note that Mr Pickles never signed the hunting Bill
either. Clearly he has no compassion for animals or humans.

If any readers or Mr Pickles is interested in finding out about a brave
woman's fight for justice visit www.ccguide.org.uk/bizivol.php


Kind regards
Don Barnard
LCA Press Officer.
