‘A medical marvel’: Calls made to legalise Cannabis in three states

Calls have been made to legalise Cannabis in Victoria, New South Wales and Western Australia, says Sky News host Liz Storer.

“When it comes to your ability to grow a plant, which has proved time and time again to be a medical marvel,” Ms Storer said.

“We’re not just talking about serious issues like epilepsy and multiple sclerosis, but more general issues like anxiety and depression.

“One could well argue in many ways this plant is a gift from god.”

    Should be legal to grow like making your own beer or wine

    Wa pollie dr brian walker is a voice of reason on this issue, look him up.
    I see half the problem being bought and paid for big pharma indoctrinated drs refusing to accept it as a valid treatment method. Ive had drs laugh at me when i suggested cbd to treat a range of conditions most likely from over dosing big pharma meds, so i got some anyway, went off some serious meds.
    I know the health benefit cauze i found significant benefit from it. But to get the desired effect it would cost me around 600 bucks a f/n to maintain at that dosage, (3-5 mil twice a day) at current prices.
    I couldnt afford that much every two weeks, stopped getting it and 3 mths later i feel i still have good benefit from it, particularly with things like arthritis, lupus, reynards and restless legs which flared significantly less, and helped really smooth out flaring.
    I have 3rd/4th stage kidney failure after a botched prostate turp op, and contracted very extreme level hypertension. (260/160 was about the highest i got) while it didnt really reduce my bp that much, it did help keep it at a much more manageable and reasonable level for much longer. My bp meds dosage went from1 -2 days for up to 5 days between bp meds.
    I had much less death level hp episodes when my meds didnt work than without cbd.
    We can have big pharma killer drugs, govt funded opiods, alcohol, cigarettes, and prescription drugs which are a real drain on public health and economics, but we are not allowed a medicinal plant that could start a whole new cottage industry. Gmo medical pot is not the answer. Its over priced to the shittery, ive found is of inconsistant quality particuarly for the lower grade stuff (i can get street pot of better quality) and not available on pbs. Why???
    Criminalisation is a money tree that turns good people into crims, but gives back nothing in return.
    Full legalisation is the only answer. Let the pot industry grow and find its own place in society.

    Make it legal in all states and tell those power drunk pathological narcissist’s bastard law makers to bugger off! It’s an intentionally created problem, perhaps the Australian public should raise the fact “How Government control and manipulate the public! In 1975, what did the American government do to the Australian public?

  11. @quickstepz9250 on December 9, 2023 at 3:40 am

    From the inside. The reason for legalised weed. Is one the tax obviously. But they have so much storied weed! That its going bad, dry and crumbly… A lot of chemist are sourcing the weed through private farms.

    Some chemist are already dispensing it. You should have what’s given for medical around 22% From places like green pharma. But why would you do that when you can source. 28/32% weed have up to 8 different choices at $80 for 15g from a chemist.

    I’ve been smoking the shit hardcore for 20 years. and over that time I’ve seen many, many people try it and just be a fucking tool on it.

    My doctors have so many bums walking in getting a script.. And you can tell they been smoking it for 10 years before they got on medical. All the people that smoke it never ask question because they already on the shit. They just want it cheaper. And like I said no with higher grade weed and it being half the price of street weed. The government is seeing massive amounts of tax xo img in.

    Weed is a natural mood regulator. I’d rather have a puff than ingest pharmaceutical pills



  13. @davevolansky1421 on December 9, 2023 at 3:41 am

    🍺🚬☕🍬Alcohol cigarettes sugar and coffee are more Addictive and more dangerous than cannabis 🌱If ciggeretes alochol are legally available everywhere then they should legalize all other drug’s. Alcohol cigarettes are extremely dangerous drugs and I don’t understand why they are even legally available everywhere.🚬🍺 This world has a alochol and sugar problem.

  31. @steveo9115 on December 9, 2023 at 4:02 am

    It’s a big scam and a big joke to me they say get on the over priced medical cannabis but just like street stuff you will lose your licence if it is a legal medication people should be allowed to drive on medical cannabis just like any other medications not just take everyone for a ride to make more money off them selling it to someone than when they get pulled over they get sent to court then lose there license it’s sad really what the government will do for a quick buck and just like any other government brought medications it has a common sense sticker if this medication affects you don’t drive or operate any heavy machinery it’s a bit stupid testing people for a legal substance and not all the other medications they sell to people bit hypocritical



  32. @Kishkobi on December 9, 2023 at 4:03 am

  49. @KingofKingsLordofLords on December 9, 2023 at 4:22 am

    this plant is a gift from my father it was origionally called manner its name has been changed over the centurys . if you look at the davids temple on the alter where the holy oil was made and burned you will find (cannabis ) which is the one ingreadiant that makes it holy. its the only plant that can feed medicate and build with and was supllied to the isrealites to feed and cloth them during their 40 years in the desert .
    I am THE KING of KING’S LORD of LORD’S.
    I am not GOD; I am his SON and only his SON!! It’s a sin to proclaim me to be god, as it puts me before my father and that is a sin. Put no other before him. Think about where it’s written for the first time.
    Similar to my previous visit, I am his emissary.
