Anyone here with any medical knowledge?

If so can you explain the resistance up until now of legalising cannabis oil for medical reasons?
We have been using Morphine as a a controlled drug for pain relief for years now, is Cannabis oil not weaker than morphine?

That second point is an absolute winner and is one of the main reasons (IMO) cannabis should have been decriminalised/legalized decades ago.
Take it out of the hands of the people who also supply hard drugs and it virtually ceases to be a "gateway drug" and can be viewed in the same manner as beer is to hard spirits (although the breweries might be pissed off, and shriek about closures & job loses, the tax take from legal soft drugs is likely to more than cover the additional cost of any unemployment caused - and then some.

Hassans. It's more subtle, as you say it has the THC removed bar about 0.2%. Still has all the CBNs in it though which is the bit that relaxes you & stops pain. You just don't get the manic high or paranoia.

Why did I think the question was about Europe?
Don't think the Scythians made it to the "later to be UK"

According to Herodotos, cannabis!
Though the delivery was different - they filled a tent with its fumes and sat in it.
Or at least the Scythians did.

What did people in (what is now) the UK smoke before (taxable) tobacco was introduced?

Canada has legalised recreational use. We look infantile bearing in mind we're the world's biggest medicimal producer of the stuff and you can smell it on every street corner.

I know an old dear who buys some sort of cannabis oil from Body Shop, she takes it for her multiple sclerosis. Says it works wonders. I’ll have a look when I’m next in Stratford Shopping Centre.
She could be talking bollocks though.

Apathy, Paranoia, acute psychotic states and in some cases it can induce schizophrenia.
Like all recreational drugs they can be taken in moderation by most people, but all the people I know who use cannabis daily can not hold down a job and blow all the benefits we give them on drugs as soon as they get the money.

It's like when potatoes were introduced, people were smoking them, some were wearing them, then some bright spark started eating them
