The landmark move is expected to be followed by more European countries.

Malta has become the first EU country to legalise the cultivation and personal use of cannabis.

Equality Minister, Owen Bonnici, said the "historic" move would stop small-time cannabis users from facing the criminal justice system, and would "curb drug trafficking by making sure that [users] now have a safe and regularised way from where they can obtain cannabis".

The punishment for smoking in public will be a €235 fine, and those smoking cannabis in front of anyone younger than 18 could be fined up to €500.

Widely available and permissable in Croydon south London too. Funny that, don't smoke tobacco it damages your health, but do go ahead and smoke cannabis it is fine.

Amazing what a small, independent nation can chose to do if it so wishes 🙄 Come on Scotland, let's be the next one 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿👍

I don't mind people who like to smoke it, just I can't stand the smell, it makes me sick..sorry

Glad I don't live on malta

Is that a Man U mask ?

Just what we need - more dope heads. It’s hard enough as it is trying to employ normal people.

In Toronto we have pot stores all over the place. After the initial euphoria when people were lined up, hardly anyone uses them now. A lot of people got burned with the hype and opens stores which are now empty. Most users still use their friendly dealer.

So its not really legalised as you can't smoke it in public. So you should change your headline.

Nonsense

So great.Please go on providing more amount

Congratulations.

Not a good idea?
