UK: Kate Middleton's kids charity hired man who campaigned to legalise cannabis, Stuart Harper Simon Murphy The Mirror Saturday 01 Jul 2023 Kate Middleton’s children’s charity hired a man who spent years campaigning to legalise cannabis. Stuart Harper wears a tie adorned with cannabis leaves and was once cautioned by police for growing weed, which he says helps treat his ADHD. Mr Harper, who left Action for Children last month, also raised eyebrows on the day the Queen died when he posted a social media snap showing a statue of her with the word “Parasite”. Mr Harper declined to say if the charity knew of his cannabis views before he quit as director of information and technology. The charity’s work includes steering kids away from drugs, and royal patron Kate, 41, has spoken of the dangers of addiction. Mr Harper, 43, has also argued for harder drugs to be legally available through pharmacists. Our revelations come just weeks after we told how the charity’s chief executive, Paul Carberry, 60, stabbed a man to death as a 16-year-old. Mr Harper, who says he left his job due to “a fallout”, was once a lobbyist for pro-cannabis group Norml UK. In evidence to Parliament’s Home Affairs Select Committee, he told of ditching his medication for cannabis, saying: “I have no more mood swings.” Action for Children said: “Stuart Harper was employed for 10 months. We are unable to comment further.” https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/kate-kids-charity-hired-cannabis-30369699
