You've done well demonangel2_uk, sorry to hear about your friend.

I got letter from my MP Peter Ainsworth.. Con East Surrey.


It says....

Thank you for your email of the 17th November 2006 regarding the legalisation or decriminalisation of cannabis for recreational use.

A recent United Nations Report has said that cannabis is now considerably more potent than a few decades ago and that it was a mistake to dismiss it as a "soft" and relatively harmless drug. It said that the harmful characteristics of cannabis are no longer different from those of plant-based drugs such as cocaine and heroin.

The downgrading of cannabis sent out the message that it was pretty harmless and may have encouraged youngsters to take it up. It is vital that we have strong and effective measures waring children of the dangers of drugs devoid of any confusion.

I believe that the Governments seriously confused course of action on cannabis has let to chaos and confusion in the enforcement of drug laws.
This in turn has led to a continuing failure to reduce this dangerous threat to lives.

Keep up those e-mails as I've not seen such a positive response in ages...
