Former cannabis cafe owner on why Liverpool should see the return of his business

Post by The Aspie Toker »

The former owner of an Amsterdam-style cannabis cafe said he wants to reopen in Liverpool despite being spared jail earlier this year.

Gary Youds used to run the Chillin' Rooms on Holt Road, in Kensington, which was raided by police in March 2019.

I've heard a whisper about this.

Something is around the corner.

My prediction is we will adopt Canada's laws in the UK. Canada has been a testing ground maybe?

years away from it unless Cummings and his crew finally realise they need a new revenue stream to pay for Furlough, but thats just my take on it.
I wish I had the option to refuse furlough. They say we live in a free world ey?!

I prefer to take the route of being optimistic, you never know what changes from kne day to the next.

We are apparently the biggest producer of medical cannabis, T mays husband is a share holder in a patent company who owns GW Pharma I think so he isn’t directly involved but I’m sure they have their snouts in the trough.
I think it’s going to be effectively decriminalised Ie if a cafe is not causing and problems and is seen to be paying taxes and doing good things I think the police in each area will choose to turn a blind eye, I know it’s not official but it’s kind of like in the U.S it’s federally illegal but each state/area is making its own rules which I think is the way it should be

actually everyone "did" have the option to refuse to be put on Furlough but you would have lost your job lol.

Im a realist, until the money is a)needed urgently or b)some tool thats a mate of cummings asks him to get on it then i don;t see it happening. Would love to be wrong. Its the shot in the arm the UK economy needs in 2021
Put food on the table or not. That's what it comes down to. If i had the sources I'd of given up my job and given whoever needed the opportunity more, a chance.
