Its brilliant news that this bill has failed to go through ....... but I would have been happier if it had failed due to common sense and reasoned thinking on points such as an acceptance that vaping is not re-normalising smoking, it's not being targeted at children, it's a far healthier alternative than smoking, there is no danger from second hand vapour, and so on, rather than failing due to some derogatory comment made by one of the MP's Still, at the end of the day it did fail |

Yes, it is good news, but with a double edge to it. They only voted against in retaliation and not based on common sense. Nor was the block in place because they felt it would be bad for the health of ex-smokers.

Nor was the block in place because they felt it would be bad for the health of ex-smokers. true, but what is does do is get it off the books until after the Assembly elections in May, when there's a good chance that Labour won't be in government. My vote's already decided as the Labour AM only had a 1500 majority last time out, so I'll be voting for the nearest party (even though it goes against the grain as it's a Conservative, but they along with the LibDems have been totally supportive on this issue) |

Why does`nt that "muppet" Drakeford, remove e-cigs from the proposed bill. Being as the rest of it`s content would benefit the Welsh public.
I only hope that Welsh vapers & supporters vote out this idiot at the forthcoming elections.
First battle won, now onwards to win the `war` against vapers.

I think if the Cons/LibDems form either a majority or coalition govt after May's elections, this is what will probably happen - the rest of the measures in the bill were reasonable and I think would be of benefit to us in Wales...fingers crossed  |
