Are sacred magic mushrooms about to become illegal in the UK?

From an Irish Cannabis list serve:

Quote:
There's very little media or public discussion of any of this, so I
don't really have any links you can follow. Go to the House of
Commons home page and look up the Drugs Bill. Yes, it has cleared
the House of Lords, and now needs to go once through the House of
Commons before the Queen gives her assent; then it is law.

Caroline Flint has said that there will be time given for head shops
to stop stocking them, and that is expected to be a period of about
3 weeks.

The new clause makes it illegal to possess, sell, cultivate any
fungus containing psilocin or its ester, pysilocybin. Not only does
this cover mushrooms, it also extends to mushroom grow kits. They
will now be considered Class A drugs, which means that offenders can
face up to life in jail for possession/ supply.

It is an absolute outrage, but despite the efforts of informed MPs
like Paul Flynn MP (Lab), and a couple of Lords, this has been
railroaded through parliament, with little debate and no scrutiny.



Please...say it ain't so.

Bliss on!
Ben

OK. Thanks. My day improved a little. Laughing

Kind of like a good-news/bad-news doctor thing. Doctor sez, "The bad news is we amputated the wrong leg. The good news is, the other leg seems to be getting better."

Bliss,

Yep.

I just, somehow, don't think that our British bro's and sis's are going to be thrilled that they are now going to be afforded the same freedoms, rights and privileges as we lucky Yanks.

Some of them may, in fact, conclude that it sucks. Laughing

Bliss on as best you can,
Ben

If the House of Commons says so, who am I to say it ain't so? Sad

It's a real shame. I never had magic mushrooms in my whole life and probably never will, I guess I am not interested.

But it's a matter of principles. Mushrooms have never been a problem here, they grow in everybody's garden. I had them in my old house, in the side of my lawn.
The fools are doing it again: with their unreasonable laws they go against nature. And they are doing this without asking the people first. As a resposible citizen I feel obliged to spread the news, at least we can try to stop it before it's too late.

And I like the headshops here. I like them the way they are, with the growrooms inside, why change that?

I wonder what kind of people that are who ban a religious sacrament that has been very common in the Celtic culture and most other European cultures since centuries (long before Christianity even). Seems that whitch hunting never stopped..or starts again.
