I agree with all the other stuff as well, but this in particular. Sick of seeing these things littering everywhere. Out for a walk the other day and saw a pile of them in a brook, can only imagine what that is doing to the things living in it.

As well as the obvious health issues, the amount of litter they are producing is absurd.
Just trash everywhere that doesnt decay.

I used vapes to give up smoking nearly 10 yrs ago , and struggled using other methods. The idea that these have been pedalled to kids , like they have , is disgusting . I’m generally not in favour of government banning things, but I do feel better control of sale for these vapes is required.

These things are so fucking addictive that in the Netherlands, where disposable and flavoured vapes are banned already, kids still find ways to buy them as they get imported illegally from neighbouring countries.
Parents used to worry about kids smoking pot in the Netherlands, these days it’s a blessing if they do as most avoid pot and go straight to fucking watermelon flavoured tutti-frutti sticks.
And I say this as someone who vapes and stopped smoking because of it: Get rid. If they have to ban all vaping to stop kids getting addicted to this shit, then so be it. I’ll just chew gum instead.

If they could find a way to protect children from them without doubling the price of them for us adults who enjoy them, that’d be great. I don’t want to have to start buying bottles of minty fluid from half way around the world because the same bottle here costs £20, but I will.
