Germany is set to boost its coffers with legal cannabis, will the UK follow suit?

Post by The Aspie Toker »

The idea that the UK will be ready in two years to accept wholesale legalisation of the drug a la Germany, or Canada, is frankly, laughable at the current pace of change.

The only surprise about Germany legalising recreational cannabis is that it took so long for the penny to drop.

According to research group Prohibition Partners, the move could create an additional £4bn for the country’s equivalent of HMRC, while creating 27,000 new jobs.

Obviously, it’s a nice little earner, though unlikely to fill the hole in the public finances left by the pandemic.

So, will the UK follow suit?
