Hooray! This is why I like the Lib Dems. They've just voted at their spring conference to decriminalise use for all drugs (even heroin) on the basis that it doesn't help. And they'll consider going further on soft drugs. Bless.
Easy for them to say, there isnt much chance of the getting elected and having to put it into practise. Of course thats a circular argument as by saying stuff like this they damage thier election chances.
It'll be a few years yet before the votes that can be picked up from young people on this issue outweigh the middle class people who will never vote for decriminalisation of drugs.
