I make no comment because it's probably too early to know what this is about. "the latest figures suggested that the downward trend in cannabis consumption since 1998 - when 28% of 16 to 24-year-olds reported using the drug - had accelerated. Among all age groups, 10% of people said they had used an illegal drug in the past year - about 3.1 million people. This was the lowest level since the statistics were first published in 1996."
I hope this signals evidence that a lighter touch and possible decriminalising it could actually help control the deleterious social effects.
