We know the industry's game, and we will not be playing it. #TrojanHorse

Joint statement by Australian Health Ministers on vaping: 'All Health Ministers have today urged the Australian Parliament to pass the Albanese Govt legislation, to ensure consistency & coordinated action to protect the future generations of Australians.'

'The fact that all Australian states & territories are on board with this legislation should be noted by the Senate', the Senate being the state's house, our CEO Terry Slevin has told Guardian Australia. We urge the Senate pass the vaping legislation. theguardian.com/australia-news…

More testimonials from previous never smokers and the massive efforts to capture youth ecig addiction. Australian Tobacco Harm Reduction Association That's not harm reduction! Gen Z demand right the right to smoke amidst government crack down msn.com/en-au/news/aus…

'Many Gen Zers - those born from the late 1990s to the early 2010s - were against the ban as an assault on personal freedoms. They also revealed their concerns about vaping and its increasing popularity among children - an issue that the bill does tackle.' msn.com/en-au/news/aus…

Why we need more independent Teals in Government. They are not so easy to buy!

There are now 1,958 sponsored passholders who have 24/7 access to Parliament House - and we aren't allowed to know who they are.

No checks on which organisations are sending lobbyists into the building, and nothing preventing tobacco lobbyists from getting their hands on a pass.

You send me this link and at the same time say that big tobacco's dominance of the ecig market is 'empirically false'? Pic attached because you obviously cannot read.

Bloody industry distractions, while we try to continue to reduce smoking prevalence for the tobacco end-game. But we always understood the industry's #TrojanHorse news.com.au/lifestyle/heal…

'Low-hanging fruit – the case for removing tobacco vending machines.' If you want to reduce smoking prevalence, you reduce the number of places people can access cigarettes. Its really a no-brainer. intouchpublichealth.net.au/calling-time-o…

'If a person overshoots their tolerance of THC, cannabis can induce anxiety rather than relieve it.' Another case of finding a drug to relieve negative consequences caused by other drugs. Or you could just avoid use? medscape.com/viewarticle/ca…

I doubt there would be any reason to call it tobacco if the only active ingredient -nicotine- was taken out. No fear of that from big tobacco and their #TrojanHorses thedrinksbusiness.com/2024/04/vinita…

This is why the world-first legislation and leadership from Mark Butler MP is so important and urgent.

It’s also why Victoria’s new licensing scheme is great news for the health of young people across our state.

Leadership matters. There’s no time to waste.

The debate between industry advocates and health advocates in a nutshell. To them it's all about them. To us, its all about the kids. Sourcing from a pharmacy is not that hard, but they want the profits for themselves.

Wow, just wow!

So much for ecig advocates false narrative that ecigs are designed to help older smokers quit. We knew it was always about the young.

Backyard chemists messing with dangerous and toxic compounds. Its the vulnerable that always suffer. msn.com/en-au/news/aus…
