As cannabis reform gains traction globally, the UK faces a significant cultural and political shift. Although medicinal cannabis has been legal since 2018, access remains limited, and recreational use is outlawed. A 2023 YouGov poll indicates that 55% of UK adults now support some form of legalization, a major change compared to past attitudes. London exemplifies this shift, where cannabis usage is widespread despite legal risks, and vibrant cannabis-themed urban culture is emerging, particularly in creative neighborhoods like Shoreditch and Brixton.
'Despite the legal risks, cannabis use is widespread across the capital, with more than 2.6 million users estimated nationwide by the Office for National Statistics.'
'A recent YouGov poll conducted in 2023 found that more than half of UK adults (55%) support legalising cannabis in some form - a dramatic shift from previous decades.'
