A grandmother, who is facing drug dealing charges, sampled a pudding laced with cannabis outside the gates of Downing Street on Wednesday.

Patricia Tabram, from Northumberland, also delivered a letter to the prime minister, asking for the drug to be legalised on medical grounds.

Mrs Tabram, 66, of Humshaugh near Hexham, admitted possessing cannabis with intent to supply in January.
