Hey Nick - it's not banned in AUS yet but we cant buy nic over here **cough bulls##t cough** we do however buy nic in from the states as juices, the major cig companies are trying very hard to get them banned and they probably will win if England bans them, then we will be next ( being part of the commonwealth) they will have to be careful tho if they ban ecig's they will have to ban the anolog as well, you cant ban 1 without the other and then my friend watch the shit hit the fan !!!
This ban is bullshit, we have the same retarded policy in Finland. You can't buy nicotine cartridges here in the first place and when people started ordering them from abroad, they changed the law so they require a prescription. And now, 1.1.2012 they will ban selling them altogether because they LOOK LIKE real cigarettes. Seriously, that's the reason. Some 50,000 people quit smoking this year with them, but the government cares only about the tax money they are losing from cigarette sales.
They're going to ban anything containing nicotine are they? Well, looks like they missed the biggest nicotine market, cigarettes. Oh wait, they're banning everything else so you have NO CHOICE but to buy fags and kill yourselves so some cunt in a lab can develop the next generation of malboro.
Did you know the FDA has impounded the latest batch of e-cigs and Liquid from TW, which has got the response of TW saying they will pull out of the USA altogether if their stock isn't released. Don't know what your beef is with them, but respect Master Grimm, Toot on.
@Lima004 I bought my first device w/liquid from TW to show my support.
Just keep voting out anyone who is against vaping.
If they do wind up winning and banning it anyway, I see a new black market.
This is not going away. Vaping is the #1 method for quitting smoking and they fear it. Some of these nutjobs are actually writing political babble saying that there's too many people living on earth. WTF??? Less than 2% of the earth is inhabited! These people are not only nuts, but dangerous.
i just woke up watched and accidentally had the transcribe on...Google is not even close on having that p.o.s work.. while your message is strong green....Google transcribed CC is hilarious...
It’s called lobbying; many of these politicians who fight to ban electronics cigarettes are the ones who invest in analogs cigarettes. They don’t want to lose money nor their friends (the manufacture of analogs cigarettes) and the pharmaceutical companies. The pharmaceutical companies don’t want a world full of healthy people. They only benefit from people with sickness. The war is again the manufacturer of analog cig, their investor (the Gov) and the pharmaceutical companies.
Even though I disagree with it, I can understand governments' justifications for banning smoking. Why do they want to ban e-smoking, which doesn't harm the health of others around the smoker?
This is how it all goes down!..People with credentials contact/visit the FDA head, and have a meeting, they talk about this new "threat" that will help people, but it will deplete a constant and present source of money, and then they put all that in a balance and guess who wins?..right!. by knowing that the FDA APPROVE ASPARTAME for foods a wile back, and all the heads of the FDA at that time are on companies that MAKE ASPARTAME, says a lot!. FDA it's a corrupt organization for generating money
This has nothing to do with safety... It has everything to do with the states, and the cigarette companies losing profits. All e-cigarettes will be banned everywhere - except for China of course... China is a "free country" - not fascist like the UK, and the USA.
Oh, stop the BAN! Well, in that case, you have my support! This video was linked in the "related videos" on one of Scott's videos, but the word "ban" was missing, and I thought "what the fuck's this guy's problem?"
I love how our government thinks it is socialist, when it is quiet clearly full on "sieg heil" fascism.
Clearly it is all control, money power and control, they don't want you to actually quit smoking, that would upset their tobacco company friends on wall street and London stock exchange, along with the tax balance, instead they want to look like they are all for your well-being while putting the knife in your back.
People should spread the news and petition through facebook as well. If the UK E-Cig Ban goes through can one still vape liquid flavors with Zero nicotine? I just have a feeling the Ban in the UK is going to happen. They want people to smoke cigarettes as everyone knows it s a billion dollar industry, one of UK's way of getting TAX so they can fund the Olympics, weapons and take over Iran and so on. If E-cig is a threat to tobacco they will get rid of it no matter wat we do. They are in POWER.
i cant believe this, what a load of crap, to ban something i as a smoker can use quite happily in a lot more healthier way, it will in long term save lives and improve everyones fitness in the long run, i can only think that our screwed up government is thinking about all the loss of tax if every turns to this amazing product, its all money money money greedy cunts
its all corruption. phrma want their slice, big tobacco want theirs, and the goverment wants their controlled taxes from it , oh and a message to big Pharma, your patches, gum, etc ,,they dont work and never will
This is not a public policy about health. Its about control and money. Are they banning tobacco products like ciggaretts or cigars, or is it just "other" nicotine products? Thanks for another great vid Grimm.
Let us hope that the Governments have a conscience. This is quickly becoming an attack on personal choice. I sincerely hope understanding and freedom of choice do not give way to deep pockets.
WHAT!? As a UK citizen this is the first I heard about this. Thanks for letting me know, it seems our government isn't in a hurry to warn us and get vapers who haven't kicked the nicotine habit back on the cigs. The tax helps pay for their Bentleys and 5 bedroom houses. Corruption never seems to end!
It's crazy to see that we have to fight just to live, and that people would rather us die from smoking. I responded and signed and i hope everyone in the vaping community does. Thanks as always for being such a good leader and for showing us how we can help.
Dude, It's only one year they are allowing the suppliers to get licensed... And it takes 18 months to get them. So option two is not so good for smaller vendors.
thx grimm. I made a post. At the very least we need some testing. If it can be proved that vaping is healthier than smoking...wow....we can save millions of lives and millions of health care dollars. AROUND THE WORLD! I won't rest until this issue is resolved.
Lets make sure we are tactful about this. As Scott said in his vid, it wont help the cause if we are swearing at them and telling them how stupid they are. Just a reminder.
The only reason I can see this happening in the united states is because the government is going to start noticing a drop in the money there getting off all the fucking taxes they have on cigarettes, and being the money hungry country we are, one or the other will more then likely happen... either A. ban them. Or B. tax that bitch.
Well, I just sent in a few comments to them, Hopefully those on my Facebook will do the same. I hate to see things like this happen, but I knew it was only a matter of time....
Folks better get ready to either BUY up a lot of juice or join me in creating the biggest Black Market E-Juice Ring :)
I signed them both but I think it is a lost cause. Not to repeat myself, but I think the reasoning behind banning is the suppliers don't have licensing. So what can we do about that?
Im canadian and ive been vaping for 3 months. I wasn't even aware of any bans in Canada until now :P I never had any problems ordering and receiving e-liquid. Since i started, i converted 8 out of the 11 smokers i know to e-cig. So one thing is for sure, despite the regulations here,the vaping community expands anyhow. But those bans needs to stop because they're based on ignorance. I signed the form and even asked close relatives to do it and attest my health gain. Were all in this together!
wow... good point Nikko... as far as i know , probably not , it's part of their "smoke free' initiative ... Vapor is not smoke either ... this is the kind of stuff we need to be telling them!
its legal in the uk now no issues anymore

The REAL reason that people may support a law to make such a simple device illegal is simple... no more profit for the major tobacco tycoons.
The tobacco industry leaders are shoving millions at anyone who can change the minds of the general public about the benefits of the e-cig.
Think about it people and voice your opinion without being falsely led along the tobacco industry’s path.
