A short musical tribute to The Late Biz Ivol who battled against Multiple Sclerosis and the UK Government's refusal to allow her legal possession and cultivation of cannabis for her own use and relief of her dreadful symptoms.
Biz was a true heroine and fought from her tiny cottage in the Orkney Isles where she was bed-ridden until her dying day.
Whilst honestly and openly declaring the benefit she obtained from the cannabis plant and attempting to help others, she was raided and arrested by police. She was then forced to sit through several hours of the prosecution case in Court, the case being halted against Biz's wishes before she was allowed a defence.
Neither the Scottish of UK Parliaments lifted a finger to help ease Biz's terrible suffering.
Biz was a staunch supporter of the Legalise Cannabis Alliance and also campaigned to stop the prosecution of all cannabis users.
Her work inspired the creation of THC4MS and "CannaBiz" cannabis chocolate bars, which were distributed - almost 40,000 of them - without charge to people who showed that they also suffered from MS.
Lezley Gibson, Mark Gibson, and Marcus Davies were behind THC4MS were eventually prosecuted for conspiracy to supply cannabis and given suspended prison sentences.
They ought to have been given medals.
Biz Ivol and her inspiration will live on in the hearts of many

Biz suffered from MS and had caught a chest infection, she had wanted to "escape" for some time, so refused any medication and died peacefully at home at 11pm last night.
