Must admit disposable electric toothbrushes are a new one on me.
It does
uses a lithium battery as well
this is why my suggestion would be to ban all non rechargable items that use a lithium battery and dont have a charge port a - not just vapes - the issue is bigger than vapes, but we are kidding ourselves if we dont think disposables are a very big part of the issue.
But ban them all and at least its not vaping targetted
BBC News just confimedAccording to this report a UK wide ban on disposables has been agreed.

The ban thing - its the crazy polarisation of politics that is going on.I actually agree with almost everything that @andipandi has copied and posted (thanks for posting it - I’d never have found that myself as I avoid the news like the plague).
I even agree with restricting the way vaping kit is displayed to an extent. I actually think the way local Asda local shop thingy at the service station close to me does it works best - most of it behind the counter and the bits that aren’t in a glass cabinet. But plain packing is a stupid notion. Adults like SpongeBob too, and e liquid and device manufacturers should be free to label their kit as they see fit imo, obviously not SpongeBob as that’s copyright infringement but you get the picture. Colours and fancy packing appeal to some and that’s a selling point. The 30 Marlboro a day smoker may try e juice because he likes the way the bottle looks. You never know….. Dedicated vape shops and websites should have no such restrictions imo, other than solid age verifications on the websites , as most of them do already.
I actually like the fact the article specifically mentions reusable vapes.
Restricting flavours is a stupid and a silly notion. But I wouldn’t put it past this billionaire asshole and his little band of dictators. He’s on a ban spree lately because he can, and he gives not one shiny shit about how many lives he has a negative effect on in doing so. And they’re preaching about environmental impacts when this dicksplash is peddling all sorts of notions that harm rather than help the environment in areas other than vaping. Anyone for Rosebank?
The guy is an asshole. Ban disposables, sure. But try and use a bit of common sense with the rest of it. Although common sense for billionaire businessmen playing at being a 21st century Francisco Franco doesn’t seem in large supply, and this guy, and his asshole mates, seem to constantly have the urge to measure their dicks in public.
What a fucking state we’re in.
Need hope this ban works....cause once they start swinging
The ban thing - its the crazy polarisation of politics that is going on.
we seem to be left with swivel eyed loons on both the right and left - and no decent centre ground.
both sides are as equally likely to ban random things.
libertarianism is slowly being eroded away -
Or maybe quite rapidly.
its not a UK thing either - its worldwide
