Leftist London Mayor Sadiq Khan has announced the formation of a commission to study the decriminalisation of marijuana in the British capital after vowing to do so in his reelection campaign last year.
Following a visit to a Californian cannabis dispensary in the city of Los Angeles on his tour of the United States, Sadiq Khan said that he would form a “London drugs commission” in order to examine the efficacy of drug laws in Britain, with a focus on potentially decriminalising cannabis.
The Labour Party politician said that the commission would help “tackle drug-related crime, protect Londoners’ health and reduce the huge damage that illegal drugs cause to our communities”.
“The illegal drugs trade causes huge damage to our society and we need to do more to tackle this epidemic and further the debate around our drugs laws,” Khan said in comments reported by The Guardian.
“That’s why I am here today in LA, to see first-hand the approach they have taken to cannabis.” Breitbart.
Blogger: for ten years as a magistrate I saw the social consequences of marijuana: crime, more crime, gateway to stronger drugs, thievery and young people with eyes almost revolving in their sockets.
WHEN will idiocy be replaced by old-fashioned common sense in our ever deteriorating society in its seemingly unending downward spiral.
