"We estimate around 13 million children alive now will never be legally sold tobacco because of this law. If its impact matches projections, population level exposure to one of the most potent, avoidable carcinogens could fall sharply, with up to 10 million fewer cigarettes smoked each day in the UK by 2040."

This is only good news. Trying to frame it as anything else is utterly bizarre.

Apart from the human health impact, cigarette butt waste has been an environmental problem the entire time cigarettes have existed. Obviously, disposable vapes have massively increased this.

We have to loosen Tobacco's chokehold.

The Tobacco and Vapes Act: starting a smokefree generation - Cancer Research UK - Cancer News

The Tobacco and Vapes Act is now law, which means around 13m children alive today will never legally be sold tobacco in their lifetime.

Cancer Research UK - Cancer News

A while back I saw someone claiming that the new Tobacco & Vapes legislation was 'ageist'.
It's literally the opposite.

Tobacco companies have always relied on people developing a habit young, to lock in an addicted customer base, all while killing at least half of all users. But it takes decades, and the science wasn't there at first - then they suppressed it - so cigarettes still exist. And now they've got the vaping market too, which was a mistake to allow to happen.

But work like this means fewer people starting to smoke in the first place. Saving lives. Access to deadly, highly addictive products from unethical profiteers isn't freedom. It's a crime against humanity. Past time we made more progress stopping it.

It's been 12 hours since my last cigarette 😭

I've smoked on and off (mostly on) for almost 40 years and managed to give up for a whole year, until last September when I had a cancer scare and it was back on the rollies or a bottle of gin every night.

Enough is enough though, so i'm using patches to #QuitSmoking first one today.

#Autism brain is stuck in the routine though of going outside every hour for a smoke, so instead i'm going to the kitchen on the hour every hour and drinking a small glass of water while looking out the window.

Ok so far, bit stressed and hyper thats probably the patch though lol
