After harvesting #cannabis, inside each flower a transformation is underway that defines the quality of the medicine it becomes. Handled well, this stage brings out the plant’s full character, turning raw flowers into rich, aromatic medicine. #drugspolicy dalgetyuk.co.uk/life-after-d...

Diana Johnson MP doubles down on #prohibition by specifically naming semi-synthetic cannabinoids as class B, schedule 1 drugs. These were already banned under MoDA. More sinister is the proposal to ban non-psychoactive THCa for the first time. #drugspolicy www.gov.uk/government/p...

Updated to 21st July 2025, based on a statistical model published in the Lancet, Israel has killed roughly 434,800 people in Gaza since 8th October 2023. That’s 20.7% of Gaza’s pre-conflict population dead. Over half are women and children. stevendonziger.substack.com/p/shock-isra...

In the previous government, I could not have been more opposed to Kit Malthouse, his authoritarian and #prohibition line on #drugspolicy. But his speech on 21st July 2025 on Israel's genocide was magnificent. I pay him maximum respect for his words and his intent.

I wrote this article in 2014, since when Israeli aggression and subjugation of Palestine has greatly increased. David Ben Gurion was Israel's first prime minister and he saw the truth clearly. peter-reynolds.co.uk/2014/08/14/t...

Peter Krykant. A martyr for the cause of evidence-based #drugspolicy. A hero who put his life and his freedom on the line for the benefit of others. He shamed the ignorant fools in Westminster and won.

In London, violent crime is up, sexual assault, car theft, phone theft and fraud are up. Shoplifting rose 54% last year. Imagine if the police were not spending so much of their time stopping and searching people for #cannabis. #drugspolicy www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Home secretaries close their eyes and ears. The real issue is not drugs. It is the systematic ruining by the state at vast expense of tens of thousands of young lives each year. The damage is done not by #cannabis, but by criminalisation. #drugspolicy www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

The British public backs strong action against Israel but the corrupt Labour government, where half of ministers are sponsored by dirty Israeli money, refuses to take any meaningful action to end the genocide of Palestinians.

Shame on Labour, supporters of genocide and other war crimes, arming Israel which is engaged in the regular, repeated, systematic slaughter of innocent civilians including children.

YOUGOV. 28th May 2025. The hard evidence on public support for #cannabis reform. 54% support decriminalisation for personal use, 34% oppose it. 13% don't know. Despite this, don't expect our arrogant, out-of-touch government to act! #drugspolicy yougov.co.uk/topics/healt...

"The land of the free" where you can be fined $1 million and imprisoned for 20 years for boycotting the war criminal state of Israel, its terrorist 'settlers' or interfering with its genocide.

I'm a liberal at heart although I'd vote for Jeremy Corbyn if he was on my ballot paper but it's time the #cannabis reform movement got wise and realised where the best chance for liberty may lie. #drugspolicy

At least half of Keir Starmer's cabinet takes the Israeli shilling. After Louis Theroux's searing insight into the reality of Israel's conduct each individual MP who takes Israeli money needs to account for themselves

Gary Lineker cuts to the chase on the BBC's ridiculous, cowardly, hypocritical position on Israeli war crimes. Under BBC rules if Russia bombs a hospital or a school it's a war crime. If it's Israel it's self defence.
