One Nation Chief of Staff James Ashby says legalising cannabis for recreational use is a “bad recipe” for Australia.
Mr Ashby joined Sky News host Peta Credlin to discuss the latest with the ongoing debate over whether cannabis should be legalised for recreational use across Australia.
“I’ve always advocated for the use of medicinal cannabis when it comes to people who’ve got chronic illness, where they’re failing in life in the sense that they’re going to die of cancer or something like that,” he said.

“It’s been proven to work very well.
“But opening this full slather and allowing people to just have a smoke whenever they choose – I’ve seen the consequences of this with schoolmates that I went to school with.”
