An MP has admitted taking drugs at a 'cannabis tea party' protest outside Parliament today with the aim of legalising medicinal marijuana. Liberal Democrat Layla Moran (pictured right) joined two Labour MPs and dozens of patients as they launched their formal bid to legalise the Class B drug for medicinal purposes. The protesters, backed by the Multiple Sclerosis Society, ate cannabis-infused scones with their tea on the lawns of Parliament Square. When asked if she had dabbled in drugs the MP for Oxford West and Abingdon said: 'Yes I went to university! I did inhale, yes I did.' She added: 'I don't any more, I'm a grown up now, but for god's sake.' The 35-year-old politician came to give her support to Labour MPs Tonia Antoniazzi and Paul Flynn (pictured left) who are trying to get cannabis made legal for sufferers of conditions like Parkinson's and MS.
