If You’re Angry About LordsVapeVote - Here’s Something To Do

[Postmodern Smoking]

Suggestions from the petition website as what to do this weekend.

Despite the setback in the Lords, vapers are making ground in Westminster. One well placed source in Parliament described the lobbying that they had faced over the last fortnight as “huge.”
So your pressure has not been wasted. It has caused politicians to start to think how to win your support by pushing for a quick reform of the TPD. So let’s keep knocking on the door.

Here’s a simple thing to do this weekend. ....

First draft of my letter to The Right Honourable Chris Grayling MP made... will send my email tomorrow. [e-mail]

Dear Chris Grayling MP,

I was confused to read in a House of Commons transcript concerning e-cigarette regulations in the Tobacco Products Directive, in reply to Andrew Murrison MP, that you said they “…have been carefully considered by the appropriate Committees of the House ...” (9/6/2016).

In fact from my recollection your statement to Parliament appears to be completely untrue and actually misleading as they were clearly NOT “carefully considered”.

• The European Scrutiny Committee was overridden by the junior health minister Anna Soubry MP.

• Ms Soubry failed to follow procedure and talk about her decision with other government departments.

• The Committee was also misled by Ms Soubry when she told it that e-cigarettes “fell out of the Directive.”

E-cigarettes were in the Directive - and continue to remain there. This will adversely affect not only me, but 2.8 million UK vapers and nearly 10 million smokers who have yet to find a way out of tobacco.

I urge you to view this short video (<3minutes) and affirm whether this can be regarded as “considered carefully”:

I would request that you consider the above points and correct the false statement that you made to Parliament.

The TPD is not fit for purpose and e-cigarette inclusion should be debated as a matter of urgency.

Yours sincerely,
