I just find it frustrating that anyone is bothering to debate it as a real issue.

As if it has anything to do with health.

As if this government would even be considering it, for one single second, if the tobacco industry wasn't already taking it's last gasps. Because if it was still making serious money and had a future, they'd all be shareholders, taking lobbyist bungs, making deals to be on the board of executives after their politics careers end and standing proudly for the rights of adults to be making their own decisions while whinging about the nanny state.

As if it were to do with anything other than a quick, cheap way to make it look like Rishi Sunak has accomplished anything in his time as Prime Minister. It's a very transparent con.


I agree with this post, 100%.

I can't stand Rishi Sunak either.

Well remember he did get the rank of "The Tower" card when I did my tarot card reading on the British PMs. :lol:

But the silver lining with The Tower is that when things fall apart there's always a chance to build back better once the worst is over. :wink:

The last televised cigarette advertisement in the United States

Trying to addict women to this foul noxious product by making an appeal to feminism. :roll:

And, we have come a long way since then. Public smoking is no longer socially acceptable.

How is vaping any less harmful than smoking the old fashioned way?


It doesn't form combustion byproducts.

Hopefully he'll be gone as prime minister before the end of this year!
