Good News Friends in The North....

Durham's old bill has had an epiphany

https://metro.co.uk/2015/07/22/cannab...urham-5307749/

Property prices there are exceptionally good value, I wonder if they'll go up now ...lol

It's certainly a step in the right direction. I remember a similar thing in Brixton a few years back, very nice to wander about with a doobie and no fear; I think violent crime went down too

At least something good has come from the tory scumbag's austerity bullshit.

Great news.

Anybody remember a Durham strain ? Green Bish, from Bishop Auckland, a cross of Skunk 11 iirc.

Big up Ron Hogg, talking some sense. Things are moving in the right direction for sure. Lets hope it positively influences the rest of the country.

Peace

green bishop was a nice old strain but it had big hermi problems always full of seeds as peoples mothers got older the problem seemed to get worse. Was lovely when it first started to show up around my area.

With any luck, this will be treated as a pilot exercise and results will be monitored rather than it being immediately shut down by the tories.
If people keep it quiet as they have been and don't take the piss, it could be the catalyst for some positive change.
But you all know it will be utterly fucked up and get worse

I heard about this last week, "It is not a priority" does not exactly mean it is time to buy houses and open up cafes as some of the social media has been thinking today in their ramblings. It is a step forward yes. The information was leaked about 10 days ago with reference to this softer approach, I finally heard the speech that has had to be made today by Mr R hogg on BBC Newcastle as a result of Westminster shoving there two penny's worth in since he released the statement. Each force/jurisdiction have a right to basically do as they please with regards class B's. Durham has wisely and thankfully chose this route. The other forces and regions are not very happy because they will either A Have to follow suit or B "the victim" use the call upon a force not doing their duty every time plea when a conviction is looking like being made. Judges throughout the country will ditch every case the way I see it. Steady as she grows
