The Conservative Drug Policy Reform Group (CDPRG) recognizes the damage drugs can do to individuals, families and communities and understands their dangers, which is why as a policy forum we seek to promote informed debate on drug policy reform. Wanting to understand public perceptions of drug policy, the CDPRG commissioned YouGov to run a poll looking at public attitudes. With a highly charged debate in the UK on drug policy, it’s vital to know what the public thinks about drugs and want to see from drug policy. This research makes a contribution to the debate by examining public attitudes towards three main areas relating to drug policy: medical cannabis, cannabis for adult recreational use, and attitudes to wider drug policy in the UK.
