For those of us here in Ireland, where organised crime gangs control the market & use kids as young as 8 years old to move their product, we just gotta keep dreaming. #CannabisReformIreland

RT @caaireland: As powerful and tragic today as it was 6 years ago in 2017.

Not enough has changed, as the vast majority of patients remain without legal access to their medicine and worse, criminalised for treating themselves and others.

The legal limit for Cannabis (THC) is 1 micrograms (µg) per litre of blood. Due to the 'Zero tolerance' approach to cannabis levels, it is scientifically possible that even passive smoking could result in you being over the legal limit in blood. #decrim #CannabisReformIreland

https://www.thecannabisreview.ie/post/cannabis-impaired-driving

A positive THC test at the roadside doesn't diagnose impairment and yet drivers are losing their licences for cannabis use that may have been days old or longer. 

Hundreds of drug driving prosecutions are in limbo as lawyers and gardaí await a judgment in the High Court.

A welcomed step forward in the right direction of our Drugs policy, If there's action taking. 🙏

Really hoping to see a health-led approach being adopted in 2023 and #Decriminalise #CannabisReformIreland

A new bill put forward by Gino Kenny TD will propose the decriminalisation of #cannabis for personal use in #Ireland.

After a decade of limited progress on #DrugPolicy, an opportunity for discussion around the criminalisation of consumers is welcome. #CannabisReformIreland

Hildegarde Naughton is Ireland's new #DrugsPolicy health minister. Will she follow a health-led approach or continue the bigotry and failure of #prohibition?
