It is annoying that they’re throwing into the mix completely irrelevant issues like legalising cannabis, just to throw voters (especially young voters) off the key issues.

Honestly, is now really the time to be having this discussion? With all that is going on, is whether people can smoke a joint legally really the issue?

How about the fact that if this corruption continues and the economy goes to sh*t, unemployment will go up, and Big Brother putting people on the government payroll is not a solution.

Foreign industry will decline and all those people who are involved in the crucial tourism and hospitality industry will suffer.

Anyone who has any sort of dealings with foreigners (taxi companies, people who let properties, supermarkets, entertainment establishments, restaurants etc) will suffer, not to mention the potential brain drain that will happen.

Despite the fact that it would hurt most to leave their beloved country, who wants to live in a corrupt country?

But I suppose we don’t need to worry, we can just roll and joint and relax, right? Maybe shag a prostitute legally too. And when it comes to paying for them, I’m sure Keith Schembri, Brian Tonna and the rest will give us a kickback at some point, right? They have to, surely.

Yes, that’s why the Nationalist Party has said the same thing.

It has great medicinal properties. I see nothing wrong legalising it for medical use. Many would benefit, people with multiple sclerosis, for example.

One argument being used is that this will lower the instances of rape.

According to the Swedish National Council for Crime Prevention (Brå)The number of rapes reported in Sweden increased by 13 percent in 2016 to 6,560 despite this liberal policy not to criminalise women for prostitution.

Sweden use the model that the Confederation of Women’s Organisations are proposing. If they really cared about women, they would help women. They would not suggest that its legal to prostitute themselves but illegal to buy. It’s a complete bonkers law. Like women will give it away free to disgusting men cheating on their wives.

It did.
