Yeah, I don’t see why they shouldn’t be treated exactly like cigarettes.
From October that’ll pretty much be the case, except only purchasable at a pharmacy. I can’t see why they shouldn’t be sold at servos, etc., but I don’t think it’s a massive problem in terms of personal freedoms. It’ll give pharmacies a cash boost, and maybe even cause expansion of their opening hours in some cases, which could be helpful.
In any case, I think that the deal the Greens got is probably the best one Labor were ever going to give.
This is definitely a step in the right direction.
It seems likely, though, that they’ll end up with something like the ‘Super PACs’ (Political Action Committees) they use as a workaround in the US.
Nice to be noticed! Thanks for moderating ♥️
Is that unusual?
I hope they never stop using that picture of the time this idiot turned up wearing the shop uniform. Him and his PR advisors should never live it down 😆
The Greens have always been against prohibition more broadly, but they can articulate their reasoning better than I can: https://greens.org.au/news/media-release/greens-secure-amendments-vaping-legislation-and-will-support-passage-through
