Skunk Cannabis

UK Cannabis users face a major crackdown after the drug was upgraded to Class B today.

More arrests and bigger fines are to be dished out by police over the next few weeks to mark the re-classification from low-risk Category C. (It was downgraded to Class C in 2004) A Government-backed ad campaign will also highlight the dangers of using high-strength skunk.The blitz comes as ministers and senior police officers grow increasingly worried about dope use.

They are particularly concerned about skunk, which makes up 80 per cent of cannabis available on the streets and is linked to severe mental illness.

Adding to their fears, research has shown the average age youngsters first try smoking a spliff is 13.


I have seen young kids in Dominica smoking marijuana and it is a very disturbing trend. No nine year old need to be ingesting weed in any form. Their bodies cannot handle it, plus they not in a place to choose whether or not smoking weed is right for them. I know it has been suggested that the Classification should be changed in the region as well.. What's your take?
