ARRESTING THE SICK

A recent Mori Poll showed 70% of Britons in favour of Cannabis
legalisation, whilst an Opinion Poll carried out for BBC News Online
suggests that almost half of Britons over the age of 18 want to see
the use of Cannabis decriminalised.

Many of the young people I have spoken with find the concept of
arresting the innocent,and worse, the sick, quite distasteful.

Have any of the Political Parties considered the consequences of this
with regard to Police recruitment both now and in the future?
