The UK should probably be pink not red.
The police actually wanted to legalize it but the government refused to. They even fired their advisor when he said that cannabis isn't really that bad and probably shouldn't be an illegal substance. The UK government is awful and corrupt as hell.
So it's still illegal but the police very rarely actually do anything about possession. They may take it off you but it's not going to result in any legal action.
Yeah, were the biggest producer of medical weed in the world but its illegal to have any here, without knowing the right people.
Like you said, pure corruption.
Teresa May's husband owns the largest supplier in the country. I suppose the family deserves some success but it doesn't exactly sit very well.
