Just want to say that weed is
not legal in the .U.K.
cannabis is illegal; it's a class .C drug.
If you are caught with cannabis:
if you are under 18 you will be arrested. If you are over 18 you might be arrested, or given a warning. The drug will be confiscated.
The maximum penalty is a two year prison sentence. For less serious cases you are likely to get a warning or a reprimand. This goes on your record and if you get caught again you could end up in court.
You can be arrested even if you are only carrying a very small amount.
Blatant smoking in public, or repeat offending, will also result in an arrest.
Drug driving is as illegal as drink driving. You could go to prison, get a heavy fine or be disqualified.
People who grow cannabis in their homes will be arrested and prosecuted and might be charged with 'intent to supply' which has the same penalties as dealing.
Allowing people to take cannabis in your house or any other premises is illegal. If the police catch someone smoking cannabis in a club they can prosecute the landlord, club owner or person holding the party.
A drug conviction could mess up your chances of getting your ideal job.
If you are caught dealing cannabis:
the police will consider this a much more serious offence than possession. It's a maximum penalty of 14 years in prison.
Sorting out your mates with cannabis is still seen as dealing
