Sorry let me try and quantify - not enough is known about vaping generally and it’s long term effects, and the use by children seems to far outweigh anything I’ve ever seen with cigarettes - certainly from my experience in schools. Not sure what the exact solution is for that exactly but something needs to happen.Strange to legalise one narcotic substance and not ban another. Many cannabis products are stuffed with nicotine. Making cannabis legal and vaping regulated seems a contradiction
Cannabis is carcinogenic- so legalising another cancer causing product seems pretty dumb really
Cannabis is carcinogenic
Nowhere near as many carcinogens as cigarettes to be fair.....
and of course, not carcinogenic whatsoever if you do edibles
...I've got some top notch recipes....happy to share.
Where would you stand on people burning the Union Jack?Farage was on top form today, played a blinder. The Dictators in Brussels had to shut it down because free speech is a crime. And most the morons on here want to be part of that. Sickening

Mainstream isn’t it Palestine?Aren’t you against Palestine protests?
Far right OK but far left beyond the pale?

Soap bar. There’s a blast from the past. Squidgy Black anyone.Tried out my first recipe from the Anarchists’ Cookbook when I was 14 with an oz of soap bar - the good old days.
Edibles are heavily pushed in the USA; they were handing out free THC shots outside one dispensary last week.
Unfortunately those days are behind me now.
The same on the Public Order Act supporting Tories about a conference being closed down

Impact On Lungs Of One Cannabis Joint Equal To Up To Five Cigarettes
A single cannabis joint has the same effect on the lungs as smoking up to five cigarettes in one go, indicates new research. Cannabis smokers complained of wheeze, cough, chest tightness and phlegm. But emphysema, the progressive and crippling lung disease, was only seen in those who smoked...www.sciencedaily.com
I guess there’s a lot more vested interests in keeping a thriving alcohol industry than there is for tobacco.To be clear: all smoking is bad for you. But so are lots of things we don’t ban. And alcohol is significantly worse for you, yet is never discussed.

Well yeah. More people drink and it’s seen as socially acceptable. Which is fundamentally my issue. We shouldn’t ban drugs based on lack of popularity really.

I know my kids have taken a lot of psychoactive substances over the years (legal and illegal). They got a lot of enjoyment from them in the past and don't bother much anymore.
Except smoking. It's so fucking difficult to give up.
If there's one substance I could wish into non-existence, it would be nicotine.
I'm going to reply, also without searching.Genuine Q as I can’t be arsed to look into it: is nicotine naturally occurring in tobacco or is it added to cause the addictiveness?
It's probably the 4000 chemical's added that are the problem?I'm going to reply, also without searching.
My understanding is that nicotine is a natural insect repellent which the tobacco plant has developed as resistance.
Nicotine is also present in tomatoes and other plants, but in much smaller concentrations.
Right, off to Google it now.
Starmer asks Sunak to explain how he will pay for his "completely unfunded" £46bn ambition to scrap National Insurance.
Sunak responds by bringing up the former Labour leader, Jeremy Corbyn.
He says Starmer tried to make his predecessor PM, despite him failing to deal with antisemitism, opposing Nato and "siding with our enemies".
Sunak accuses Starmer of putting "his own interests ahead of Britain's".
You answered your own question - it’s pointless theatreWhy do we even bother with PMQs if the PM is under zero obligation to take it seriously or answer questions?

This line of questioning is ridiculous, the government does not need to 'fund' it. Labour going with the household budget mantra to a greater extent than the government.Why do we even bother with PMQs if the PM is under zero obligation to take it seriously or answer questions?

I don’t think the Tories are MMT believers so it’s a fair question. They will want to take the money from somewhere, so asking where is legit. You just get triggered by the phrase.
Probably puts it in an election ad?If the answer is "we're going to cut departmental spending by £45bn to fund it" - where does Labour go next?

It’s just realpolitik - when it comes to PMQs I don’t think it’s that deepBut they agree with the principle behind it? The Tory retort will be along the lines of "Labour intends to raise NI after the election". The whole charade is based on a false premise.
