Common sense continues to prevail across the pond - www.marijuanamoment.net/marijuana-use-is-becoming-more-commonly-accepted-in-sports-study-funded-by-nfl-shows/?“Due to prohibition, we currently have a generation of healthcare providers with minimal understanding of a substance that is increasingly available for both therapeutic and recreational purposes,” the report says. “This knowledge gap needs to be addressed. Restrictive policies and over-regulation have hampered an opportunity for Canada and the USA to be global leaders in cannabinoid research.” The help this plant could give people in this country and the NHS will be seen in due course, in the meantime they'll just have to suffer unless they're wealthy enough to afford a prescription 🤮

www.marijuanamoment.net/harris-needs-to-follow-through-on-marijuana-legalization-independent-presidential-candidate-cornel-west-says/?Trump's missing a trick, I don't think he's reading the room on cannabis prohibition very well, could cost him, hopefully anyway. Most people in the USA can see the benefits ending prohibition brings to States that have done so and they're not fooled any more. "At the Democratic National Convention on Thursday, West was asked about whether Vice President Kamala Harris, the Democratic presidential nominee, should make ending the broader drug war a “centerpiece” of her agenda if elected. “Oh, absolutely,” he told Marijuana Moment. As far as marijuana legalization is concerned specifically, West said “they’ve gotta follow through on that.” Hallelujah.

Kier Starmer - "we've inherited a £20 billion black hole"
Around about the same amount we spend annually enforcing drug prohibition to make no discernable difference whatsoever to the drug market 🤦

I suspect sleepy Joe has been on the bong for some time. Would explain his sudden memory lapses and his love of ice creams 😆 🤣

A simpleton's question for you Robbie. How would you police people who drive after using weed? At the moment they use a very simple and basic test to determine if a driver has weed in their system: a saliva test which just says yes or no. With alcohol, they use a machine that shows the 'safe limit' of 35 micrograms per 100 millilitres of breath. As far as I can see, to make weed legal they have to invent a machine that does the same thing as the alcohol test, the 'safe limit' of cannabis in the system. Any comments on that?

Been discussed up here. It simply has to be zero.

I wonder if they could introduce something along the lines of a sobriety / impairment test? I think the objection to the US-style roadside sobriety test is that there's an element of subjectivity to it, but I'm sure there'll be tech available to help address that concern.

As Dexter says above, the only logical way is to carry out impairment tests at the moment. I would most certainly fail a roadside swipe test at any given time, luckily my prescription gives me a 'get out of jail free' card 🙂 Compared with the limit for methamphetamine the cannabis limit is set ludicrously low, this is because meds for ADHD and some other illnesses are basically that, methamphetamine. Don't know why it's radically different for cannabis 🤷 Particularly when you look at the video from 5th gear I posted above where the guy drives better stoned 😄

I have a theory Ely. This whole attack on smoking outside will expose all this for the sham it is. Underground dealers are already big in the counterfeit tobacco game and the further Starmer and his cohorts push this nanny state bullshit the sooner we will eventually see drug wars over tobacco. That might wake the populace up to the sheer stupidity of prohibition for certain products. Just a theory mind..

Just saw a program about AI and automated AI-controlled cars. It might be the solution?

It wouldn't be so laughable if it wasn't members of the last government financially benefitting from the growing and exporting. Including one that was our drugs minister 🤦

Since I've yet to see a drugs minister get involved with alcohol, tobacco, caffeine or sugar surely the term should be 'illegal' drugs minister 🤔 Atkins will definitely be remembered for the wrong reasons, I live in hope of an independent investigation that sees her and May brought to account🤞

A "health expert" on TV said caffeine is a vital and very important essential nutrition. It seems they think caffeine is absolutely one of the most important things we can get into our bodies. Never talk about limits. Is this typical for Sweden and Finland? The two most coffeee drinking countries last time I saw such a list.
