mackem 23,860 Posted May 4, 2016 Report Share Posted May 4, 2016 The german health minister Hermann Groehe yesterday announced that Germany is to legalise medicinal marijuana as of early next year,italy is expected to,legalise it for medicinal use within 2 years,australia's victoria state recently legalised it for medicinal use,on the other side of the pond a number of american states have legalised dispensaries for medicinal use,Canada also,the list is growing as the evidence is irrefutable. I know its a hot potato,topic as i remember the howard marks thread,but whatever the arguments the plant does have beneficial medicinal values,will it be decriminalised in the UK soon or is GW Pharma's Sativex the only medicine that will be available to the british population in the future?What are your views? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

BGD 6,385 Posted May 4, 2016 Report Share Posted May 4, 2016 I reckon it'll be fully legalised both medicinal and recreational in the next decade or so. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kanny 19,458 Posted May 4, 2016 Report Share Posted May 4, 2016 I dont think it will be any surprise that I say legalese it... I use cannabis for medicinal purposes it allows me to lead a fairly normal life and hold down a job I've been my my present employment for over 10 years don't think I could have done it without it.. Why should I be criminalised just for getting on with my life. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mackem 23,860 Posted May 4, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 4, 2016 I know there will be people,reading this who are smoking a ciggie or knocking back a pint and thinking "f***ing druggies" without realising the irony,but when i read about germany i realise its only a matter of time here.Its currently limited to sativex which isnt available on the NHS and is expensive for what it is considering GW Pharma were licenced to and indeed did grow 30 tons of cannabis last year. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

stealthy1 3,964 Posted May 4, 2016 Report Share Posted May 4, 2016 There won't be a spare allotment in the UK if it ever becomes legal here. Grab a couple quick before their gone. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kanny 19,458 Posted May 4, 2016 Report Share Posted May 4, 2016 (edited) Even if they brought in a Dutch style system of your allowed to grow 5 for personal - medicinal use. It makes sense. It would be a better system imo .... different strains have a different effect on different people and there conditions. .if grow Your own was legalized then the patient can Taylor suit there medicine to there own unique needs and to there own quality like organic ect .
