Looks like German vapers are in for a rough time when TPD comes in.

Sadly TPD will be well and truly embedded in the UK by the time any divorce happens from the EU. TPD is likely to be with us for some considerable time, EU or no EU.

Whilst is true to a degree I also cannot see our Govt implementing it to the full extent as I would suggest the NHS is rather onside.
If you use Twitter follow a few vaping advocates. I read a story today about an advocate who gave a presentation to several GP Practice Nurses. They were given discount codes for some vendors and are  going to point smokers in our direction.

I have also liaised with my GP Smoking Cessation expert (I know her well anyway.) They are also advocating Ecig use.

Live in hope.

I agree, but even if the UK decide to leave the EU, it will take at least a year or two, if not longer to actually get to the point we are no longer under the thumb of the EU. By then the rules will be so embedded, repealing vaping regulations will be at the back of the list of stuff to do, and hardly likely to be a top priority. We can but hope, but I'm not going to rely on politicians to come to the aid of vapers. Unless they want our vote of course, but are just as likely to change their minds afterwards. Trust and politicians are words not usually seen in the same sentence.

It is in the TPD that they should restrict ingredients includes additives that facilitate the inhalation or uptake of nicotine, such as those with a minty flavour it seems.

I agree that its easy to get from bloody China and I have enough to last me about 10 years.

I have moved several posts from this thread into a new thread in the politics board as they were seriously political.

Well, seriously barmy.
