‘Cannabis is also being grown legally in the UK for another medicine, Epidiolex. It’s currently being reviewed for the treatment of two rare forms of uncontrollable epilepsy, by medicine agencies in both the US and Europe. But it’s not yet available.
The specially bred type of cannabis plant used to make it is grown in a glasshouse in Wissington, Norfolk, by British Sugar – which also grows virtually all of the sugar beet in the UK.
British Sugar – whose managing director is Paul Kenward – has an exclusive deal with pharmaceutical company GW, which makes Epidiolex. Mr Kenward is married to drugs minister Victoria Atkins.
She was accused of "hypocrisy on a grand scale" over her husband’s involvement in a legal cannabis farm. She declared the interest in Parliament when she was appointed in 2017 and excused herself from speaking for the government on cannabis.’ – BBC, May 23, 2018
Skunk no1, no thank you not even potent enough to take a headache away amd stringent clinical trials hey!!!! Why so they can lie about the therapeutic benefits, get fucked BBC and government with your bollocks
Its a plant used for millennia with medicinal benefits written in ancient Chinese texts from 4000BC…. but the media keeps telling us its bad in the papers and on the TV. It seems the only place where we can get factual information now is on the internet with peer-to-peer networking. Drug prohibition needs to end. A huge mistake was made. Then another massive injustice in the 60’s when all the psychedelics were outlawed. psychedelics are nothing but medicinal. Drug prohibition creates the violence, suffering, trauma & death. our current system has been forced to calcify around this cancer of political bollocks and now all the wrong people are making a ton of money from it.
I want to live in a world where i can buy whatever drug I want legally, know exactly what it is, know exactly the responsible dose i want to take and to live a peaceful life.
Drugs are a healthcare issue. NOT a police issue.
Hypocrisy at its highest level!
Look on home Office webpage and look up medical cannabis it’s being legalised for medical use right now they’re working it all out they have evidence of medical properties
Joint
UK gubberment ‘Cannabis is bad yo. It has no medicinal use yo’. Then goes on to sell it for medical use all over the world for huge profit through companies the politicians have stakes in. I wonder why they won’t make it legal to grow, sell and use in the UK? Hmmm…
Sorry, no one has any right regulating what another adult can or can’t consume, let alone making a bloody plant illegal, the drug war has failed us, causing more suffering than any drug, except maybe alcohol and tobacco combined
Amounts
I heard that medical marijuana is being legalized in the UK on November 1st

Cbd
Error; thc and cbd and all cannabinoids are psychoactive. You do not know about medicine or pharmacognosy.
You’re wrong about no clinical trials. Cannabis has been used worldwide, for many reasons, for millennia.

I hate sprint or power of cannabis
Look the problem is alcohol won’t ever be illegal, just because of the global market and the history it has (cultural to just social and etc) and I see in the comments people saying I rather drink alcohol and go out and have fun and that is fine. I am not a huge consumer of alcohol but I do party a lot and go out and if there isn’t drinks there then yeah it’s not lit. My point is it’s all about self control. I love pot it has helped me in so many ways specially during my time of depression and I still am I had been given so many antidepressants and each new course was higher and higher dosage until they can’t do more due to health concerns and guess what it didn’t do shit. I attempted suicide and failed. That’s when I turned to weed I used to smoke occasionally with my friends when I wasn’t depressed but now smoking it in my current state the high I feel is so different it’s a very relaxing feeling like everything in the world is perfect. I used to wake up every morning just asking my self why am I even bothering with life but now when I wake up and get that juicy wake and bake my whole day becomes so much better instead I think I can’t wait to wake up tomorrow and have an another beautiful day. People need to realise why weed is illegal and I am not bullshiting but if it were to become legal everywhere it would mess up the financial state of many pharmaceutical companies and trust me on this one the people that sell weed illegally just think the amount of weed that is sold in every city in the world are you telling me that amount can just pass through the government just think about it. Stop being sheeps people open your mind and look at what’s going on around you. They are making a natural flower that when used properly gives nothing but positivity seem like some next level health hazard when stuff like tobacco and alcohol is legal please. Do you know how many teenagers are getting addicted to nicotine that just drives the money into these tobacco companies and same with alcohol do you think the owners want weed to be legalised and lose money on their product fuck no wake up people.
At 1:36 that bud looks like a dick lol……

The Devils weed
Derived means taking the raw product and mixing it with something else. In this case man made synthetic poisons that are proven unnecessary.

just legalise it
the uk government are going to fuck this up by selling out to the Canadian or American markets. this should be produced in house by the people that have wanted this for decades, not some moneygrubber. iv not problem at all with Americans or Canadians but the uk needs to keep its industry’s in the uk and not send it abroad for once.
I work for the police and I would vote for cannabis to be legalised, there is nothing wrong with the plant but we still have to raid houses for a plant growing that will never hurt anyone just because some old people say it’s bad
Good
Lying again bbc
