vapers.org.uk - Nothing About Us. Without Us.

[VapingBad]

Not Barking Mad at all it is a serious issue that vapers should not make fun of, my dog chewed up an empty 5 ml sample bottle that rolled off the desk, luckily she only had it for a couple of mins before being caught. Keep you e-liquid away from dogs they are attracted to the flavouring. The vapour bit is BS though.

The nanny state part reminds me of:

Nanny State Index: 'Excessive' regulation and 'sin taxes' make UK the worst place in the EU to be a wine drinker or smoker or a vaper
The report ranks the UK as the bloc’s third most meddling country - below Finland and Sweden - when it comes to regulating citizens private lives

Don't know if this has been posted b4. I added the 'a vaper' part above.


Being that far behind Germany is somewhat scary.

That Clive Bates sound bite should be a T-shirt

You told us to quit smoking. You taxed the pants off us; you've bullied us with your public information campaigns; you've racked up the stigma that we felt. You've tried to stop us using these products wherever we can. You've hit us with massive societal disapproval. Tobacco companies haven't done that, government and public health have done that.

So we've done the right thing. We've got off smoking; we've protected our health; we produce a vapour which doesn't harm anyone; most people aren't troubled by it.

Just leave us alone! Just get off our backs!

Not a hope of that coming to pass.

Would need to be a pretty big T-Shirt though to fit all that in 
But I agree with your sentiment.
