The Daily Mail is at it again; the front page headline is "Cannabis: Risk In One Joint"

Apparently, a single joint raises the risk of schizophrenia by more than 40%, a disturbing study warns.
However, the article then goes on to quote the actual researchers, on page 4, who say "Although individual lifetime risk of chronic psychotic disorders such as schizophrenia, even in people who use cannabis regularly, is likely to be low - less than three percent - cannabis use can be expected to have a substantial effect on psychotic disorders at a population level because exposure to this drug is so common."
Sounds like the Daily Mail might be scare mongering again... But wait! There is more:
"Cardiff University researcher Dr Stanley Zammit added: 'Even if cannabis doescause an increased risk of developing psychosis, most people who use cannabis will not develop such an illness.'"
There is then more "cannabis is bad" stuff, but the article finishes with "However, others questioned the link, pointing out there has been little change in rates of schizophrenia in recent years despite the rise in cannabis use and the increasing strength of the drug"

there was a full page article in the Express about how haf of Alex Salmond's cabinet have smoked it at one point.

i was watching Mock the week last night and dara o'brien made a great point/joke about how everyone of these MPs that say they tried it, all say that they didnt like it. he said that he finds it interesting how these MPs bodies are chemically different to the rest of the world's, so that they didnt get any effect from weed lol.

or something along those lines

Weed isn't a great thing, but skunk is something else and i think in todays society there is a lot of confusion between both. I totally condone skunk.

Weed in my opinion is just worse health wise than alchol, plus peopl tend to be more of a twat when having weed rather than alcohol....

thats my thoery.
