A pro-cannabis campaigner has opened a shop selling accessories aimed at users of the banned drug.

Chris Baldwin received 920 votes when he stood for the Legalise Cannabis Alliance in the General Election last July.

His shop in Rowlands Road, Worthing, is called Bongchuffer, slang for a puff on a marijuana pipe.

Cannabis leaves adorn the walls and books by pot smuggler Howard Marks sit on the shelves.

Chris said: "Already I have had quite a few people coming in asking for cannabis.

"One man got a bit angry when I said I didn't sell it. But there is no way I would take the risk.

"I am on a suspended sentence for possession with intent to supply."

Instead, customers can buy everything from pipes to books to cigarette papers perfect for rolling joints.

Chris says half of the shop, which is unused, may be turned into a cannabis caf - if the drug is ever legalised.
