Don’t impose further bans on smoking or vaping

What the petition asks
Do not impose further vaping or smoking bans. We think it should be a free will choice by those who do it and banning it is likely to cause an increase of illegal activity and smuggling. Smoking and vaping do not impact your ability to function in the same way as already illegal drugs.
Smoking and vaping is a choice of free will, and does not require a further ban to limit people's choice. We think it will only increase illegal activity as it is hard to control banned substances already in the UK such as Class A Drugs.
