and
still the governments wimp out from facing the tobacco touts
Dont you believe it. This is yet another victory for the European merchants of death.
I have not the slightest doubt the UK government knows this, but business interests certainly do not want smokers quitting. So, of course, we Brits just have anonymous and unintrusive words on the packs. By the way, some Canadians are trying to circumvent the legislation by adding innocuous half sleeves to the packets. Sam Saunders, a mathematician, put the risk like this: Of course, having your head blown off would be a far less painful way to go than many of the ways smoking takes you out, and the risk from smoking is, in fact, considerably greater than the exploding cigarette risk described above. It is well known in the industry that, if you do not get them hooked before the age of 20, it is highly unlikely that you will get them hooked at all. So, of course, cigarette advertising is aimed at the younglike, for instance, on the sides of racing cars. Happy smoking, suckers! More from the article:
Neat to know how much our politicians care. Bliars PR machine took a million pounds from Formula One. Strangely, he then opposed the ban on advertising to children on Formula One cars. Ken Clarke, who yearns to take over the British Tory party, receives large donations and stipends from the tobacco industry. As, of course, did those in the United States who sought to drive Clinton from office. Know your friends, they are only doing it for the children! Meanwhile, the childrens grandparents and parents die; so, naturally, the governments do not have to pay the pensions! related material the web address for this article is |
