      I disagree. The guidance in my view is wrong and the law does not preclude it . Smell of cannabis is sufficient to stop search and I will continue to encourage my Officers to use it particularly on those criminals who are engaged in serious and organised crime.https://twitter.com/DannyShawBBC/status/940488066342576128 …

      Police urged not to stop & search people for drugs simply because they smell cannabis. This is from a @HMICFRS report on police legitimacy

      Dear Andy. Those involved in serious & organised drug dealing never touch the stuff or get anywhere need it. What are you talking about? I agree smell of cannabis provides reasonable suspicion for stop/search but is usually a waste of time - likely to be user not a dealer.

      I can tell you as a recovered addict your area wrong. Virtually every dealer who was not on hard drugs themselves was a cannabis smoker. Not all cannabis smokers are involved in illegal activities no, h/e your statement is absolutely wrong Brian

      Street dealers/retailers often deal drugs to support their habit but the importers & distributors, the real serious and organised criminals aren’t that stupid! Unless you take out the network, you’re wasting your time.

          Brian you know that organised criminality exists at many levels and our street based OCG's are certainly organised and definitely cause significant harm. I applaud the support @MerPolChiefCon gives to operational staff, gives them the confidence to do their job.

          Yes removing the importers is important h/e even the guys in Chapeltown in Leeds back in the early 2000s when the police were pretty much scared at one point to go up there & the bigger dealers used to sit out on the streets they all smoked weed, they weren't supporting a habit

          They had the top cars, huge gold chains, rings etc, they were in it for the money. When the police got some control in the area you didn't see them, for a while they were using school kids under the age of legal responsibility, but I still crossed paths with some people who were

          Higher up & they absolutely were not dealing to support a habit, but smoked weed. I do know that at least 2 of those people were involved in importation at that time because they sat talking about how they used certain things that have a better chance of putting a dogs sense of

          Smell off, about how they are using rowing boats, all kinds. They both smoked it. The biggest of the big the police are going to have trouble finding most of the time because they use other people, those 2 were not scared of the law at all, they'd sit & laugh. I am not entirely

          Sure where you have the info from that the bigger players do not smoke cannabis because from my experiences, although thankfully only a couple of years long, anybody & everyone involved in crime smoked it.
