This new law has created tension between the city's mayor and Congress. Washington DC joins Alaska, Colorado, and Washington state as the only places in the US that allow the use of the drug for recreational purposes. Residents and visitors to the city over the age of 21 can possess as much as 2oz (56g) of cannabis, and may grow a few plants at home. However, Buying and selling the drug remains illegal, as does smoking it in public. This  plan was reached upon through  a referendum last November. But the vote revived tensions between local officials and Congress. Washington DC - a federal district, not a state - is required to seek congressional approval for much of its legislation. In a letter sent on Tuesday, two members of Congress warned the city’s  Mayor, Muriel Bowser that she would be break

Arsenal dominated possession but lacked penetration, and their confusion turned into chaos when France youngster Geoffrey Kondogbia put the team from the Principality in front with a deflected strike from 25 yards in the first- half.

Dimitar Berbatov, on his return to North London, doubled the visitors’ advantage after the interval when rounded off a brilliant counter attack as Arsenal threw men forward. Second-half substitute Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain gave the Gunners a lifeline with a stunner on 90 minutes, but their desperation turned to
