Anguz Posted November 17, 2016 Report Share Posted November 17, 2016 Hey gang, I am from Canada originally but relocated to the UK a few years ago for business. Out of curiousity, does anyone here based in the UK smoke cannibis and if so, how legal is it really here? If a UK cop caught you with a gram or two, what would they do to you? In Canada, it is a slap on the wrist! Cheers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ceejay Posted November 17, 2016 Report Share Posted November 17, 2016 Depends on where you are in the UK you are really. I'm in London and the Police have way more things to worry about than someone smoking a reefer or carrying a couple of grams. Rule of thumb is, be discreet and don't mix with idiots. Larger cities I guess will be the same, little rural villages and people with nothing better to do & a jobsworth local copper...You'll end up with a fine or warning in no time. After that, you're a marked man Oh, bye the way, it's illegal to be in possession. That's it. I stopped smoking 10 years back, actually got fed up with it.

Sogeha Posted November 17, 2016 Report Share Posted November 17, 2016 Getting caught with a gram in Southern Ireland can lead to prison, but smoking is still rife especially among the under 35s. I haven't smoked anything in more than a decade, my only vices are red wine, watches and books. Sad really. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
