E-cigs and the TPD discussed in the House of Lords 07/03/16

[Postmodern Smoking]

Generally some excellent questions and 99% positivity (indeed that's higher than PHE's more than 95% safer than tobacco stance! )
We have come soooo far

[calnorth]

Ridley, Forsyth and UKIP ...common sense again. UK won't be selling into Europe much the way things are going, but China will...and India maybe?

Smoking poisoned fags kills...e-fags likely don't unless you've been half killed by any other means, or smoking.

Wow
Positives were being touted for sure
Me likey

Nice to see a reasonable discussion, hope they take note in the other place!
Congratz to Lord Brabazon of Tara on his 2 year vaperversary if he's looking in!
....wonder what his setup is?

I'm sort of wondering if the vid is an early April Fool as it almost comes across as too good to be true (Don't worry, I know it isn't but just so pleasantly surprised by it)

We really have come so far Postmodern Smoking - I'll never forget how much I wanted to (& did) shout from the roof tops about this amazing product, when I bought my first e-cig over 7 & a half years ago. So for me, to see a debate like this about them, is almost everything I could have ever hoped for

They talk about implementing the rules of the TPD for European and cross border sales
Certain parts of Europe are banning online sales
So its only the manufacturers that would gain
And if the stringent tests on liquids will be in each country, liquid sales will only go to companies with big pockets

Congratz from me also to Lord Brabazon of Tara on his 2 year vaperversary

If he is looking in, I hope he comes & says hello & lets us know his set up

Of course Ridley and UKIP are Climate Change trashers..not sure about Forsyth. Likely not a good thing to have on your record these days.
