money money money, more of it for the government if they keep things controlled. The home offices stance is that cannabis has no medical properties, but cannabis concentrates such as ISO are just dandy 
sadly have to agree...how will they manage if it grew in the wild?I've signed on but truth be told the whole e-petition thing is one big joke, they only intend to then debate the petitions they want to see debated. There's already a company making tens and tens of millions of pounds growing weed in the UK and as such paying tax on that money, the government has no financial incentive to open up the market and offer the chance of competitive pricing. With just the one license granted, said company can charge what they like. With a free market and the knowldge that the majority would just end up growing for use not sale, they won't take the gamble on losing that tax money
I find it interesting however that an address and post code is a requirement to create one etc, it rather seems that the info is of no genuine importance or relevence, just data mining, else they are essentially stating that homeless people, gypsies etc, regardless of their legal citizenship are not worthy of creating a petition, somehow for some reason do not fulfill the standards required to create a petition.
Honestly yes, but everyone being to scared to stand up and be counted is perhaps the Main reason the prohibitions have survived so long, Every year more and more people decide to vocalise there oposition and worldwide it is leading to more success, Greece being the latest to decriminilise all drugs a couple of weeks ago. When they lie we have to make sure people hear the truth if that means a bit of goverment hassle....So be it!amd dont you think its a bit risky putting all the info down on the e-pet. ?!
