    It is way overdue and there has been enough research to know it’s safe now,

    I'd rather Sadiq Khan visit staff at Sapphaire have a chat and interview with them or even be present at a future Sapphire Clinc Webinar conferenence along with Sapphire medical professional's and paitent's and get more involved in the uk medicinal canabis treatment's n clinic that's what's needed here not jet setting off to the US. I also feel the government and or NHS should be helping reduce the cost of medicinal canabis (i don't expect it for free) for people in recipet of medicinal canabis on a low income, unemplpoyment or sickness benifit's.
    since starting on medicinal canabis a few months ago it has changed my life and not only due to the canabis treatment and being a medically recognised medicinal canabis paitent lifted a lot of worry n stress also getting away from the illicit market, dodgy people, stress and worry all that brung (which i now see was having a hugly negitive impact on my life) helped a lot too. the support i recived from the staff at Sapphine Clinic was great, they have all been fantstic. from my inital inquiry, trying to get registered (the NHS "My GP's Surgery" were making it very difficult to get registered and I nearly gave up) to getting my 1st Doctors appointment and prescription, the staff i spoke to helped so much and can't thank them enough, they are doing Great work.

    With Thailands recent move to legalise cannabis flowers for all people over age 20, the UK is now very far behind the curve.
    Even the Tories are starting to see $$$ everywhere but their own pockets.
    Thailand is like the new Amsterdam but hot and sunny and with many glorious beaches and some of the best cannabis ever and less restrictions.

      Tories own lots of weed farms.
      Jamie Cleverly has one or two in a Sierra Leone and probably filters it into the British exports with how other Tory colleagues massive new weed incomes.

    It's heading for 4 years since its been legalised for medical use but there is still no law changes to support us ie driving.
    Would love to see some sort of photo I'd cards for patients so we don't need to explain and justify to every police officer that walks past.
    If it was completely legalised without restriction it would save alot of hassle

      This is what stops me going to a clinic… I can’t lost my license or else my life is practically over. The driving law is a must for me and many others

      @@xRoRox yeah its hard. I went from struggling but being able to jump in the car and go to the shops and work to being house bound nearly as if I make it to the bus stop my legs are knackered and wouldn't be able to go any further. With cannabis I'm now in next to no pain but stuck in the house.
      There is alot of people still drive as they think there are protected but there is still a zero tolerance in place. I think it would be up to police and going on the manner they have shown so far you would be prosecuted.

      @@Cainb420 the community on Reddit for Uk medical users is hilarious. They talk of medical defence which is all well and good but by this point you’re in court, fighting your case at your expense. Still risking losing your license and having extortionate insurance even when you get it back. Anyone who questions their logic that the 2mg doesn’t apply as is medicinal seems to get a lot of hate. It really does need addressing and updating in the eyes of the law as it really is a joke.

      @@xRoRox I know there just no talking to some people. I was going to a festival and the letter that came with the ticket said all bags searched, no drugs. I phone the local police to see what I needed to carry to cover myself , the officer wasn't sure and checked with the Sargent who said if I was caught I would be arrested regardless what evidence I had with me.
      There is no protection because is so much easier to arrest and let the court do what it wants.
