Tory Jonathan Djanogly predicted legalisation in ten to 15 years.

Lib Dem Sir Norman Lamb, possibly the first MP to take a cannabis product on camera, and Labour’s David Lammy estimated five years.

Sir Norman had previously led his party’s decision to back the legalisation of cannabis.

Mr Lammy moved away from his party’s official position to backing legalisation.

Cannabis became illegal in the UK in 1928 and it remains illegal to possess, grow, distribute, sell or grow it.

However, it can be prescribed for medicinal purposes.
