Ban advertising for e-cigarettes

What the petition asks
E-cigarettes are being advertised everywhere in the UK, on billboards, magazines and newspapers as well as online. This should be banned like advertising for normal cigarettes is.
The use of e-cigarettes amongst teenagers and children is skyrocketing around the UK with flavours making it more favourable for them to use. Many e-cigarettes have nicotine in them which could increase the risk of addiction and cause other side effects. Banning the bright, colourful advertising of e-cigarettes could help lead us on the right path of helping to prevent children from using them.
