Cannabis reform - what does the Mayor actually want?

The possession of small quantities of cannabis for personal use should be decriminalised, a report backed by the London mayor has concluded.

The report by the London Drugs Commission, chaired by former Labour cabinet minister Lord Falconer, makes 42 recommendations, including removing natural cannabis from the Misuse of Drugs Act (MDA).

Lord Falconer told ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Radio London that “continuing to have possession as a crime meant continuing have problems between the police and ethnic communities".
