    I read that in the Sun earlier.

    Be interesting to see how many coffee shops (mainly the ones in the centre) can afford to stay open if all brits were banned, especially in the summer months when I bet over 50% (maybe an exageration but I bet im not far off) of trade comes from us brits...

    I've read this everywhere this morning in numerous
    other forums too. This has been going on for ages
    and imo, is nothing to worry about, afterall it is the
    Sun newspaper, which I wouldn't touch with a barge
    pole anyway. It's all media hype and in practice could
    not work, it would drive it all underground again which
    is how it all started in the first place.
    I bet you nothing changes, just as before, infact how
    long as this argument been going on.

    I hear you, I too like to take trips there now & then
    I seriously can't see how it would be put into practice.

    Your local dodgy street dealer there will make a fortune
    if it happens, thats my view on it.

    The Sun article is total bullshit!

    There was a proposal dealing with banning non Dutch from buying in coffeeshops in the Maastricht area ( due to the fact that there are millions of Germans and Belgians within a hours drive). But this was proposed many months ago and no action has been taken.

    Remember that marijuana & hash are not legal even for the Dutch, only tolerated. A new government in the Netherlands could decide in the future to change the rules on coffeeshops. But not in the forseeable future.

    There has been talk that banning non Dutch from coffeeshops would be against EU regulations.
