Yeah, it some ways it makes me fucking angry, that citizens are banned from using or growing cannabis, while a corporation is allowed to grow it on an industrial scale for profit.

But on the other hand, it gives us ammunition to . Its becoming impossible for governments to keep this bullshit story that cannabis has absolutely no medical value.

It'll only be the start of something if people push it, but judging by the amount of people that attend the Pro-Cannabis rallys that's a fair way off.

Excellent post, thast exactly my opinions on it.

No medical value they say, but there plenty of monetary value for themselves and the big Pharrma companies. Not surprising really from a government who wont even listen to their own drugs advisors!!!!

lol... so true.

governments around the world are sticking their heads up their own asses, making increasingly stricter laws that nobody asked for and were totally unnecessary to begin with.

I can't even imagine what kind of box these people must live in. Totally disconnected from society. I think many politicians are even more brainwashed than the citizens, they believe their bullshit.

haven't heard anything good about it in this area....Dr. Knotcutt was the specialist in charge and this was the test area/trial area and the few i know that tried it went back to the good old way of medication.....now Dr. Knotcutt has left James Paget hospital and gone to Switzerland......doesn't say much,but form your own opinions

how long do u think he will be your lawyer? ive never heard of a lawyer who takes trial directions from his client :lol: +the arguments a non starter, these companies have licenses from the government, u dont, its like saying if i get caught growing opium il just claim unfairness because hospitals are allowed to dish out morphine, the law is unfair but hey this is england, nothing would rile the judge more than comparing something legal to something illegal & saying its the same thing
