Legal Highs set for new immediate bans in UK?

Crime and prevention minister has outlined plans to introduce measures that will enable immediate temporary bans on "legal highs" that are deemed popular, in attempt to reduce possible harm to the general public whom may assume that legal highs are safe to consume, due to their legal availability.

However, this reasoning, no matter how noble, contradicts the sale of cigarettes and alcohol, which kill thousands in UK every year and causes thousands more poor health conditions.

Alcohol and tobacco remain freely available despite statisics showing that they should technically be banned to oblivion if the same attitude was applied as legal highs receive?

What do you think?

Are the government doing the right thing or otherwise?
