‘Bristol can lead the way in pushing for legalising cannabis’
Bristol is urged to lead the UK in advocating for cannabis legalization. The current approach to the 'War on Drugs' has failed, and legalizing cannabis could bring numerous benefits, such as reducing illegal market harms and redirecting tax revenue to positive projects. Worldwide, a trend towards cannabis reform is gaining momentum. Bristol's history of progressive drug policies and collaboration with Transform Drug Policy Foundation position the city well for this advocacy. The push for cannabis reform is growing in urban centers. Transform's Legalise UK Cannabis campaign seeks to influence the UK government and society positively. Support for this initiative is encouraged for transformative drug policy change.
