Red-dot Posted August 3, 2017 Report Share Posted August 3, 2017 Had 6 tourists in my local and all were vaping and swapping flavours and the air was full of the smoke. Now these contain many toxic substances should they be BANNED in public places? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Twistedsanity Posted August 3, 2017 Report Share Posted August 3, 2017 They all contain nicotine, in addition being highly addictive it is used as an insecticide, how much more toxic can you get than that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wingman Posted August 3, 2017 Report Share Posted August 3, 2017 One of the worst things I ever did was start vaping. I only used to smoke cigs when I went out probably 5 a week, decided to pack it in and take up vaping. I am now more addicted than ever and find it hard to go a couple of hours without puffing on the damn thing. I agree should be banned!

Gonk Posted August 3, 2017 Report Share Posted August 3, 2017 Should have to use them in designated smoking areas, I always do, not fair on others and some of the clouds some people belch out is ridiculous ! Better for me than cigars so I'm for them, should be controls though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr gen Posted August 3, 2017 Report Share Posted August 3, 2017 They all contain nicotine, in addition being highly addictive it is used as an insecticide, how much more toxic can you get than that twisted Not all contain nicotine but most, do. Ingredients as follows:- Vegetable Glycerine (natural plant oils) Propylene glycol better know food additive E1520. food flavouring to give taste also suspended in either VG or PG. Nicotine also suspended in either VG or PG and also added in very small amount, mostly 0.3mg or 0.6mg where do you get the insecticides from in the list ? Getting back to the OP's question, all our local pubs allow vaping indoors. but my friends I and that vape would never vape to the extent of filling the bar with the fumes and ruining other customers enjoyment or make them feel uncomfortable. most of the time we go outside and vape with those of us that still smoke. It is a question of respect for the other customers and the landlord that has given us the right to do so in a responsible manner. Those that don't do so should be asked to do it outside.

Jason_ox Posted August 3, 2017 Report Share Posted August 3, 2017 Well the NHS is pushing for those addicted to cigs to give vaping a go. Thousands of nasty chemicals in cigs inc arsenic etc not to mention the tar. I too have friends who sell the vaping stuff and are doing very well at it. I've given it a try but it's not for me, non smoker so cant see the point in it or taking it up. Should it be banned? I dont think so, I've seen people weened from the cigs onto vaping and then quit. Maybe a ban like using indoors in public places but I dont even see it happening that often, majority of businesses treat them like smoking.

Penelope Posted August 3, 2017 Report Share Posted August 3, 2017 Really, how odd. Because it's worse than smoking. At least smoking had a certain age old maturity that participants didnt belch smoke at you carefree. Vapers seem to have this youthful careless entitlement whereby they never put the damn things down and breathe the stuff everywhere. It generally stinks and lingers. You see car windows opening in traffic and it looks like an out take from breaking bad as the smoke billows outward Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

old'un Posted August 3, 2017 Report Share Posted August 3, 2017 Shame they don't all die quicker instead of leading us towards yet another NHS health timebomb in years to come Cost of tobacco related illness to the NHS 1.7 billion per year, revenue raised from tax on tobacco 14 billion per year. so if you banned smoking the NHS would have a shortfall of 12.3 billion.

Scully Posted August 3, 2017 Report Share Posted August 3, 2017 Had 6 tourists in my local and all were vaping and swapping flavours and the air was full of the smoke. Now these contain many toxic substances should they be BANNED in public places?No. I think it's hypocritical for anyone to suggest smoking is banned in a public place; whether vaping or the real thing, while it is perfectly legal to consume alcohol in a public place. If the reasoning is due to the drain on NHS rwsources, then we most certainly need to consider a ban on alcohol, sugars and sweeteners, and for the same reasoning. If it's simply because you don't like it, then again no. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
