Extreme views in the debate about any form of cannabis decriminalisation are advanced with almost religious fervour.

On the one hand, some assert that cannabis is a dangerous, highly addictive drug which causes schizophrenia, and that any move to relax prohibition would be a disaster.

On the other hand, there are those who have used cannabis for years, swearing it causes no trouble.

On Tuesday the debate will once again take off, following the publication of an All-Party Parliamentary Group (APPG) report recommending the legalisation of pharmaceutically produced cannabis for medical use only.

1. Whatever one thinks of cannabis in general, it is outrageous that it cannot be used medicinally

Doctors daily prescribe drugs that are far more dangerous.

I know people who are alive because cannabis enabled them to tolerate chemo.
