Don Barnard Press Release
Thursday 29 Aug 2002 No embargo. As you are aware the British Board of Film Classification was in the news today [Thursday]. Do you think you can do anything with the following. Historical account of the Cannabis legalisation Campaign banned in public interest! Paul Dooner who's been making a film charting the legalise cannabis campaign over the last year or so recently submitted the material he wanted for release to the British Board of Film Classification [BBFC]. Yesterday [BBFC] refused the film any kind classification because the film (allegedly) 'incites drug taking' Snips of video available to TV stations. Photo call interviews and more info. Contact Paul: 07973 463603 paul@greenbritain.com LCA Spokes person Don Barnard said: I do find it remarkable in today's political climate where every statement made by politicians is scrutinised.

We all know how porn has the ability to encourage masturbation which allegedly cause hair to grow on the hands even blindness but the [BBFC] gives these xxx rating. "The refusal to give this video of any kind of rating is clearly based on political considerations rather than in the interest of protecting public morals and health.
