Some chemists will sell it, some wont.
Walk in to the shop in a nice suit, looking middle aged and respectable and you should be ok.
Do not phone in because they will say no.

I happened upon some in Maplins, the guy said most their shops stock it but sometimes you have to ask for it. 9 quid for a litre.

Its not because you might drink it, its because you might be refining cannabis resin.....

This is the first time in my adult life that I've felt another nation is more stupidly restrictive than my own.

I got 500mls and a funny look from my local independent pharmacy for £3.20.
