GREEN PARTY councillor, Ian Driver, is sensationally attempting to open Britain’s first legal cannabis cafe in Kent and has urged police to turn a blind eye.
Cllr Driver wants an "Amsterdam-style coffee-shop" that would be granted "a special dispensation" by local authorities and would therefore be a safe, social place to smoke weed.
Driver told local reporters - "It makes eminent sense to have a nice relaxing atmosphere where cannabis users, for recreational or medicinal purposes, can get together and enjoy themselves just as other people go out for a drink. We are going to talk to the police and ask them to be tolerant of the cafe".
Kent police are not supportive and have bonged the idea saying – "Our role is to enforce the law which states that cannabis is a Class B controlled drug and possession is an offence which carries a maximum five-year prison term."
