Populism was the main motivator behind the decision. On what grounds do people have to make cannabis a serious drug?

The classification system isn't designed to tell you how harmful a drug is and the government found plenty of support for their decision to reclassify amongst the public. What makes these people experts, the amount of people they treat for addiction or the ability to read stats and do tests.
