Calling all Vapers everywhere - Wales needs YOU

[Diche]

Calling all VAPERS, from every country and every nationality.

Help stop the ban of vaping in public places in Wales.

We all know that politicians generally prefer to receive communication from their constituents, but just once in a while we need to ignore that. This is one of those times.

Below is a list of Welsh politicians and their contact details. These are some of the politicians that are most likely to effect the outcome of stage 3 on the 8th of March, and the vote on March the 15th.

What we are asking you to do is adopt one. Send them a letter an email or a tweet (or all 3) and tell them about YOUR vaping story. If you are in the industry tell them how a ban would effect YOU in your country.

Keep it short, be polite, and tell them where you live.

[bergkamp]

is the ban in wales different to the tpd?
I holiday in pembrokeshire at least twice a year so if you could post a link for more info on how it would affect me it would be appreciated

 

[scrumpox]

As I spent my formative years in Bridgend, and am not too scarred by it, I shall adopt Janice.

Yes the Welsh Minister is proposing a ban in public places, he has been defeated on the subject of a total ban and is now angling to make a list of just the places he thinks it should be banned, like pubs where people eat and pub gardens in pubs where children are permitted.

Those are just a selection of links that might be useful

Vaping is banned in public places for maybe a year now in Portugal , not a big deal to be honest !!

 

[Diche]

Well we have got at least one reaction, Alun Ffred Jones has just liked the adoption tweet dedicated to him on twitter.

The stupid Welsh vaping ban rolls on with some changes to the ban,

Amendments to the ban:
You’ll no longer be able to try flavours or e-cigs in shops before you make a purchase, and you’ll no longer be able to use these in your local pub. Personally none of my locals or any pub I've ever been in allow vaping inside so that shan't bother me. But If u could please sign this lib dem petition opposing the labour ban on e cigs and vaping that would be epic.

Signed. Getting close to the 5,000 signatures required. I'll pass this onto colleagues and friends to sign too.
