E-cigarette workshop

Today, the EU will be holding a "workshop" (a word that should only be used by people working in light industry) on e-cigarettes. Hosted by Europe's most dangerous woman, Linda McAvan MEP, it is heavily biased towards the prohibitionist point of view. This means lots of think-of-the-children, precautionary principle bollocks, as the slides below indicate.

You can watch proceedings on Vapour Trails TV. Also, be sure to read Clive Bates' latest post about this madness.

Why would a child take up a habit costing £5 a week and then switch to a habit costing £50 a week and then continue with it?

The well planned Workshop - It was a disaster for Ms McAvans :)
Nice!

Kids are fast learners yet they cannot distinguish between a combustible material made of paper and something made of plastic?
