It _is_ a research target, and progress is going well! https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Nutt

I'm interested as to where you got the idea of "stupid political reasons" blocking research, he literally released a good substitute this year.




Nutt's work was indeed one of the things I was thinking about. However, I think they're going to have a huge challenge to get their compound licensed.

From the article you link to: "Nutt is also campaigning for a change in UK drug laws to allow for more research opportunities".
