So what was the LCA all about?

So what was the LCA all about?

The Legalise Cannabis Alliance and what we did is in the Commemorative Edition of Legalise and Utilise, available on Amazon: the campaigns, the elections, the people, the fliers, the policies, "The Challenge", the communications with the Home Office and much more. LCA candidates contested over 80 election, distributed hundreds of thousands of fliers, attended protests, picnics in the parks, rallies and festivals: spoke at the Oxford Union, House of Commons, Universities, trade union fairs and even a High School for Girls in London.

LCA campaigning helped see the downgrading of cannabis to Class C under the Misuse of Drugs Acts, albeit after deregistering as POLITICAL PARTY it was ungraded again. Such was the value and influence of a devoted campaign, run all along on a shoe-string budget by volunteers.

LCA was the only UK single issue cannabis party to have a party broadcast on TV and radio. It was probably the most active cannabis campaign group in the UK, ever.
