Anthony W.
started this petition to
All M.E.P's in the European Parliament
Article 18 includes Electronic Cigarettes, as these do not contain Tobacco why are they included.
The TPD was designed to cut down on the use of lit tobacco on sensible health grounds, yet they see fit to include E-Cigs which have already cut down on the sale of Tobacco and are a definite life saver.
They want to diminish smoking yet want to ban the most successful product which does just that.
They say it is not a ban but it will be a defacto ban. and will cause most of the 7 million users back to lit Tobacco, a health disaster in the making.
