And yet the current government threw away a potential cash cow to the coffers which would have (pardon the pun) saved your bacon and many in your position with the decriminalization of cannabis. Rightly or wrongly the figures don't lie, the waste of police time money and resources spent on a guy growing 5 ;plants in his loft and taking that through court is stupendous (one guy for £1.50s worth of hash)in this time of austerity and police cuts don't you think KBLF that it would have been a wise idea?

We are having 30 police stations closed in Devon and Cornwall. So if someone gets caught shoplifting in Dartmouth the nearest copper will be ten miles away. They are not going to be arsed surely? Big chest and massive boobs [Link]
