“Use your head. That much weed wouldn't be left behind by mistake, in spite of anyone's feelings about the Occupy movement. This was a fully risk-assessed business decision.”

“mrmcdams
Love the comment and the timing. Yes it could have blown away from the pot heads in jigsaw park who were to stoned talking to the trafic lights to chase it. Has anyone checked the electricity bill of the building they now occupy, To many heat lamps use a lot of electric”

“Most of it is garbage but it sounds like there was a lot of sellable product there. It's just like a legitimate business in that where the location serves its purpose within a pre-planned time frame, and as soon as that deadline is reached the operation is terminated. Who has ever worked at a factory / plant / workshop and turned up for work to get handed your P45 because the site has been closed overnight? The main question being asked by the dejected redundant work force is "What about all those open orders?
In legitimate business we all know recent history indicates that those open orders get fulfilled at the new Polish plant, and the orders that are lost due to the delay are acceptable to the shareholders when offset against the savings made from closing the Plymouth plant.
Factories that don't get closed in the UK though are the dope growing ones, unless of course it is to avoid the law coming through the door! The reason for this is because thanks to our Asian friends we have just become so damn good at it. So good that we are producing enough to export to other countries! Just think, in the middle of a recession that is about to turn into a depression, we have an industry where we can choose the growth margin. Except for the fact that I'm talking about something illegal. So forget about export and just look at domestic use. Practically overnight with the strictest of regulation we could be looking at net benefit to the UK economy of £6.7 billion per annum. These are approved stats supplied by Independent Drug Monitoring Unit (IDMU) which is basically an "expert witness" org for Crown Court requirements.
And the hardest of anti weeders should look away now as the figures also show:

* There are 2.7 million regular users of cannabis in Britain (daily – monthly use). No country on earth could lock away that many people away.
* Approximately three tonnes of cannabis is consumed in Britain every day.
* Approximately 300,000 people grow their own cannabis in Britain.

I don't smoke weed (for the record) as my life style & livelihood is that which I cannot afford to flirt with the thin blue line, and there are many like me but some do choose to gamble and so there is one more stat.

* Expunging existing cannabis criminal records of approximately one million people would result in additional income tax revenue of £200 million pa.

£7 Billion taken from the most abhorrent criminals and given to our economy. Seriously, what is the freakin hold up!”

“Realised I'd been conned when the Christmas tree seeds I bought came up looking nothing like Christmas trees. Lol.”

“Probably just a conicidence but i could not help observe that all this cannabis was found at the roughly same time the occupy camp was forced to move off from the jigsaw garden.”

“Don't Bogart that joint...”

“painten green, how does spellcchker work?”

“they could burn it in the new incinerator and then we could all "relax" at the taxpayers expense, oh, thats me!”

“Imagine the revenue from selling it on legally.”

“What a waste. You can still smoke the stalk and leaf. Hand it over.”
