House of Lords (not even elected... just a bunch of old dudes who have power of veto over loads of laws) have just decided to reclassify cannabis as a class B drug as of January.
That puts it on a level with amphetamines and barbs, and probably means the price will double since dealing it would probably get a life sentence now
God knows what that means for growers - get busted with one plant, get thrown in the slammer??
This country is ridiculous.
