Looks like the Green Isles are returning to a natural drug used for over 2 millenia in London. Hundreds of hash pipes from the Roman conquest have been found in excavations.
THe NHS is cash strapped, this is also an indictment on the socialist healthcare system of the country. When Kosovar gnags can sell higher quality higher potency marijuana at a lower cost than the local NHS pharmacist, there's a serious "Atlas Shrugged" inversion of the free market.

"In the United States, the Food and Drug Administration has approved the oral use of dronabinol, a cannabis derivative, for people with Aids."This is sloppy journalism. Dronabinol is not a cannabis derivative. How can you study the effectiveness of cannabis if the product you're testing is a designer drug? It will provide some pain relief in the target group, however. A legitimate test for the effectiveness of cannabis therapy, I think not.
I agree with your assesment of the socialist health care system.

Hundreds of hash pipes from the Roman conquest have been found in excavations. Interesting. And all this time I thought it was the lead in the water that caused the collapse of the Roman Empire.

Sorry. No toking.
"The British Medical Association has said that only cannabinoids - part of the cannabis plant - should be used in medicine."
