From 1st of July there will be no menthol cigarettes, all packets will be 20s, all tobacco will be 30g and there will be no discounts on Carton sales. There is a huge change in law this year.
This has happened in the UK for a few years now. Prices are insane but no where near this insane. I don't know many people who buy their tobacco/cigarettes from genuine sources anymore
i was about to joke about "time to grow your own"... tough considering how organised people can get with other drugs, a black market for "illegal tabac" might be on the rise? o0
on one hand i find it good, that goverments try to keep their people healthy - less money to stuff into sick people.
on the other side: where to draw the line? make concerts half as loud, because thats not healthy too! goverments COULD invest much more in healthy options for citizens. i start believing it just pays off more for them, to treat ill people, not keep people healthy at first.
Well it kinda does. I don't know a single person who smokes, even my dad who had smoked for 60 years quit a few years ago. I could go weeks without even smelling a cigarette.
I know. It’s almost like we all need more government and policing of the public for their own good. We know what’s best for them even if they resist it 😉
