Absolutely no doubt e-cigs are gateway product says Labour

[toots]

And here we go again: www.thecourier.co.uk/news/politics/labour-looking-at-e-cigarette-ads-1.431749

Mr Burnham said there was "absolutely no doubt" that the electronic devices were a "gateway product", and questioned whether it was acceptable for them to be exempted from the ban on cigarette advertising.

Did he not read/listen to/hear Robert West of Ash UK's report

Oh i see if i smell like >> this >> then I'l be able to A: look like >> this and get a B: hot girl like this !!!! Colorful bulls also don't actually alow me to fly either.

After reading the article it seems to me that the big tobacco companies are causing the negative feedback because of their aggressive advertising campaigns, it's going to ruin it for the rest of us that are using vaping as an alternative to tobacco, I wish the big tobacco companies would all go bust and leave us all in peace !

Yes, I totally agree with you 100%

[markm]

Someone needs to have a quiet word with him, as I'm sure he believes that rubbish,
Do him a favour and let him know what real scientists are now able to prove!

[kibbster]

He's just towing the Labour party line.
They all say that which is why it's imperative that they don't get into power at the next election.

If there's ever a politician that is spreading rubbish and lies about e-cigs, 99% chance they are labour.

[kibbster]

Oh I also agree but the very fact that Big Tobacco are trying to make it look like they are single handedly saving the world with e-cigs - which sinks us.

I too wish they'd go bust, but then the world economy would go into free fall.

If you think the 2008 banking crisis was bad, that would have nothing on a Big Tobacco crisis!

All this guy is doing is showing:-

1. he's uneducated to an acceptable level
2. he hasn't done his homework, and
3. who is propping up his campaign "sponsorship" (which'll be at least 2 third parties, both with the first initial "B")


oh, and

I am in "absolutely no doubt" that Mr Burnham is taking out of his ....

It's such a lame argument.

Quick! Write to your local Tory/LibDem MP pointing out the evidence (ASH) and suggesting they make political capital...
If you can't bring yourself to talk to them for ethical or political reasons, write to the local Labour MP and point out the embarrassment and ammunition that he is giving his opponents.

No act of kindness, however small, is ever wasted
