We’ve toiled away at issue 2 for around 8 months, slight longer than expected but you can’t rush this level of quality!

Grab a copy before they sell out, we won’t be printing any more.

β€œResearchers from the University of California found that those in the cohort who had used cannabis recently had a lower prevalence of comorbid conditions than those who hadn’t. For instance, they were less likely to be affected by hypertension (81% versus 85%), hyperlipidemia (69% versus 79%)…

β€œIn most cases, it is simply not possible for producers and sellers who operate outside of the realm of the law to match the safety and production standards followed by the often large companies that do things legally, leading to better quality and higher safety standards all around.”

β€œThe Loop’s work has proved vital in identifying dangerous substances. At Parklife in June 2025, the charity’s onsite testing identified high and variable strength MDMA pills containing up to three times a common adult dose, enabling rapid public alerts about overdose risks.”

These all reiterate the company’s promises to investors to β€œuse state of the art technology to bring the popular drug to the masses”, alongside an enticing pricing structure, offering β€œmargins for sellers ranging from 50–70%… for every $100 the holder sells, they keep up to $70 of it.”

β€œHere’s the first red flag: 19 of the 24 studies included were cross-sectional studies. Think of these as snapshots in time. ... It’s a bit like noticing that people who carry umbrellas tend to get wet and concluding that umbrellas cause rain.”

There’s no need for a black/legacy market if everybody is given the same opportunity to be involved in a legal one.

But, if licenses for growing and selling are only given to big companies who only want to profit from us, then what’s the point?

β€œStop and search rules also have particular significance for the estimated 60,000 to 80,000 people in the UK who have prescriptions for medical cannabis, following its legalisation for medicinal use in November 2018.”

Did you know that there are more than 1 million medical cannabis patients in Australia? There are only 26.5 million, so 1 in 26 people are prescribed cannabis. The UK needs to catch up!
