HEMP Party Policies

• to re legalise and regulate cannabis for personal, medical and industrial uses.


• to allow for health education, home growing, and regulated sales through registered outlets which will separate cannabis from the criminality of the black-market and end consequent associated corruption.


• to allow medical use, utilising cannabis' painkilling, relaxing, anti nausea and healing properties.


• to establish a commercial hemp industry producing fuel,
fibre, paper, textiles, food, oil and other environmentally
sound products.


• to release all those imprisoned for cannabis alone and the removal of all records of previous criminal cannabis convictions.


Reasons to VOTE 1 HEMP.

This was a topic of extreme discussion recently and a range of suggestions were made by an informal
think tank. These are the suggestions received:

  1. To alleviate the suffering of the chronically or terminally ill.
  2. To enhance the environment by replacing environmentally unsound products.
  3. To reduce avenues of fast cash for terrorists, insurgents, arms traders, and security organisations.
  4. To reduce the flow of cannabis money to criminal gangs.
  5. To limit corrupting temptations available to Police, Customs Officials, and Prison Guards
  6. Decriminalisation of hemp would drastically reduce Police workload, and free officers to tackle genuine crimes where it is not as easy to gain high arrest rates.
  7. To remove an avenue for scaremongering by opportunistic politicians and journalists.
  8. To hopefully lower the price of hemp.
  9. To put an end to using dogs as a tool of discrimination against a harmless sector of the community.
  10. To put an end to the marginalisation of cannabis users, indeed to try to put such petty behaviours to rest in many areas of politics.
  11. As the Democrats have forgotten all about "Keeping the bastards honest", and would rather play "Make a deal", the HEMP Party would undertake to try to keep the bastards honest.
  12. To allow people to enjoy a spiritual, relaxing experience - legally

A Message from George Bernard Shaw

 

The old notion that people can "keep themselves to themselves" and not be touched by what is happening to their neighbors, or even to people who live a hundred miles off, is a most dangerous mistake. The saying that we are members one of another is not a mere pious formula...It is a literal truth; for though the rich end of the town can avoid living with the poor end, it cannot avoid dying with it when the plague comes.

People will be able to keep to themselves as much as they please when they have made an end to poverty; but until then they will not be able to shut out the sights and sounds and smells of poverty from their daily walks, nor feel sure from day to day that its most violent and fatal evils will not reach them through their strongest police guards.
