    I’m surprised there isn’t more of a general legalization push in the UK, I guess it’s in part because nobody actually cares.

    I smell weed pretty much every time I leave the house. The police don’t seem to give a shit, and I see people smoking it outside all the time.

      Whilst this is very true I wish I could easily buy it from a shop with guaranteed quality and some tax money maybe put back into help the farce that is this country right now rather than having to constantly meet up with dodgy cunts with varied quality.

      Not that I really believe the tax money wouldn’t be funneled into some cunts pocket instead but I can dream, right?

      The UK is one of the world’s biggest growers of medicinal cannabis. 2017 ICNB report ,page 44

      There seems to be a lot of interest from large companies in not allowing smaller cultivators.
      And the government sacking David Nutt didn’t help either.
