Petition to stop extra duty on vape products

[Lee Parsons]

The labour government are just bad news for everyone. Totally out of touch with the population of uk.
They are doing it for the kids i hear dogooders say? Well those kids find way to illegaly purchase them in first instance. It wont stop kids. It just hinder them.

The smarter thing, would have been a challange 25.

Its a stealth tax raid is what it is. Akin to dictatorship. Not being told, but unfairly being priced out of the market.

Diy is the route to go. Give the finger to the govement. Dont fund them for paying for illegal migrants or what ever they do with revenue.

how would that have been smarter when you just said right before it that kids get them illegally anyway? you’ve contradicted yourself.

simple really. Where their is a will, their is a way for kids that have means. Knowing right people, perhaps purchasing from over seas etc.

Over seas would be harder to stop.

Its great you make things illegal, does it stop it. No.

By having a challenge 25, no shop is going to sell to you, if you dont look that age without id.
But we know the products are safe and meet our regulations.

Adults shouldnt haft to pay, because of childrens choices. Thats on them.

As for flavours he really needs to tread carefully with. We could say this then applies to many other things. Eg drinks, crisp etc

Really? Fr cigarettes? Wtf. This country is becoming pathetic. A wet lettice of europe. Our kids are so soft these days, and it get worse the more the nanny state interfere.
No more night clubbing at age 14 15 then. Lol. Mind the kids of today. Um

I wonder if this is actually gonna even reach a paltry 1000 signatures?
Maybe people actually want extra tax on vapes??

Petition: Don't put an extra duty on vape products

We think that putting duty on vaping products of £2.20 per 10ml will lead to people smoking again. This is adding potentially £22 per 100ml liquid on top of the price. We think this is extremely excessive. We think it's an unfair duty on a product that contains no tobacco.

i think it is probably cause everybody knows it is a waste of time

As above. The government will just steamroller this through irrespective of what opposition they meet. Petitions and public surveys are nothing other than a paperwork exercise.
