By and large that was fairly balanced and informed.
Mildly hopeful for some common sense happening in the next few weeks but I won't hold my breath.
Was interesting watching Sajid Javid in the commons just now trying to virtue signal how much he's supporting people that need this as a medicine whilst trying to make sure he's in no way advocating people "enjoy it".
Still even this minor step will be enough for May to lose it. My guess is that the home office is doing this without the support of no.10.

You're a dreamer.
It's a bit like Brexit. London and some other cities, pockets here and there, would vote for it, but the majority would vote against it. Graduates for it, non-graduates against. Young for it, old against. It's so easily available who cares? Maybe if we legalised it and taxed it, it could fund the NHS. Personally I say no free health or social care for anyone over seventy and heroin free on prescription. There's a magic bullet, right there.

Sadly the video uses troll tactics to generate extremism, whereas marijuana is just another drug, alcohol is arguably more destructive, nicotine is profoundly addictive, and caffeine hides in the bushes.
It's been 6 months and I cannot say anything actually happened. Business as usual. Now our leader might make it national.
