UK Gov releases most comprehensive study on vaping to date

[mkhilario]

Many interesting conclusions on how safe vaping is. Hopefully this gives us ammunition for the defence of our rights (as well as making us feel better about our hobby). I encourage you to read the whole study or at least the conclusions. Link to the study is within the following press release:

It doesn't stop the European Union meddling though: http://metro.co.uk/2016/01/03/smoke-e-cigarettes-the-laws-are-changing-5597949/

We have big tobacco and pharma companies to appease, and damn, we are losing tax.

The holes in the laws are clear. Vape shops will just say "for use with 0% nicotine only" for their tanks and mods. The losers in this are the juice makers. The 10ml bottle limit is nonsense. If you can have 10ml of 20mg juice, then surely we can have 100ml of 2mg juice, which is a lot safer anyway... The "laws" are clearly geared to hit next gen vaping and support the shitty "cigalike" devices that big tobacco has invested in.

yep...now that vaping is over a billion dollar a year industry the political class bought by the corporations are going to hand over the entire industry to the corporations who own them. the corporations didn't have to spend a dime developing devices, creating juices, creating a market,promoting vaping.....they had the free market it do that for them...now that the free market has created a source of wealth the facist will snap it up for the price of a politican.
