In this inspiring infographic, we offer up a ‘cost-benefit’ analysis for legalising cannabis in the United Kingdom.

We’ve decided to publish this infographic after many US States have decided to legalise cannabis over the last five years.

We look a the number of cannabis-related crimes committed in the UK. We look at the cost of enforcing cannabis laws, and then look at the financial benefit the Treasury would receive if cannabis was made legal.

We also take a look at the various medical benefits offered by cannabis consumption.

We’ve tried to remain impartial when offering this cost-benefit analysis, and we’d invite you to make your own mind up regarding the legalisation of cannabis in the United Kingdom.
