80% nicotine market is illicit. Smoking rates increasing. Excise revenue decimated. Criminals are flourishing. But this government and their cheerleaders in big public health still push the delusion their polices are “world leading” @nick_coatsworth
Chris Minns is spot on. Scrap the tobacco tax. Scrap plain packaging. Make it so people can buy quality cigarettes, at fair prices. That or watch crime take over. You've lost the war on tobacco. Admit it. Move on.
Only 21.4% of healthcare providers in this study knew vaping is less harmful than smoking. That is a complete and utter public health failure. clearingtheair.eu/post/most-heal…

Architects of Australia's world-worst tobacco policy, admit there is "a lack of empirical evidence on tobacco control outcomes" on making cigs look awful. But they want to do it anyway. That's how you got to where you are now, muppets. #ClownCountry academic.oup.com/heapro/article…
This is me, Bludn. I have just uploaded my own story to @THR_Global. I have never smoked or used a vape, but I support efforts that encourage innovation, access to lower-risk alternatives, and honest public education about the relative risks of different nicotine products. I also believe that adults who smoke deserve access to accurate information and viable options that help them move away from combustible tobacco, which remains the most harmful form of nicotine consumption. My support for tobacco harm reduction is grounded in a belief that progress in public health comes from openness to evidence, respectful dialogue, and policies that reduce overall harm rather than simply attempting to eliminate behaviour without addressing underlying realities. I support my husband in his choice to be cigarette-free with vaping, and I see the benefits every day. Please can you all make an effort to upload your stories to @THR_Global. ALL our stories must get told.

“The design appears less like an open consultation and more like a path towards a pre-selected conclusion: more restrictions, more bans, and greater regulatory control over all nicotine-based products.” eunews.it/en/2026/06/11/…
Tobacco Cigarettes harm every organ in the human body.
When #nicotine products resemble sweets, gadgets or lifestyle accessories, that is not accidental design; it is a strategy to attract and retain users. #TobaccoExposed #WNTD2026 @myESMO @EuroRespSoc @PartnershipFree @rivm @TobaccoFreeKids @enspbrussels @CNPT_E @Le_Cnct @AshOrgUK
Now served with a community note.
What happens when parents discover an entire generation is becoming addicted to nicotine? This week on Thriving with Addiction, Meredith Berkman, co-founder of Parents Against Vaping (@ParentsvsVape), joins me to discuss youth vaping, flavored tobacco products, and the advocacy
Did you know? Nicotine is a mild stimulant, similar to caffeine, and doesn’t cause smoking-related diseases such as cancer and heart disease. It’s even prescribed for some neurological disorders and is considered very safe! Learn more: VAEP.info/NICOTINE #VAEP #HarmReduction
After years of misinformation about smoke-free alternatives vapers are taking up cigarettes again! Another stunning success for the prohibitionist public health lobby… #ProhibitionDoesNotWork youtube.com/embed/ZPbonenc…
Sweden's success didn't happen by accident, and it won't survive by accident either. Bad policy, bad legislation, and bad information can undo decades of progress.
Costa Rica is considering banning oral nicotine products, leading to concerns about driving users to more harmful options like cigarettes or the black #market dominated by criminal organisations. theadvocates.org/costa-ricas-wa…
@TahirTturk Yes, that data only went to 2023. Now it’s 2026 and the new numbers tell a very different story — with the Dept of Health asking the public for advice on how to fix the growing problem they created. The irony is off the charts.
@By_CJewett @tripgabriel Christina, in your years of coverage on @FDATobacco how often have you quoted any of the 20M+ Americans that have used vaping/pouches to quit smoking? Close to zero so far as I can tell.

He's not referring to smoking, which is freely available in Australia. He's referring to harm-reductive alternatives, like nicotine pouches and vapes, which are more or less banned here.
In Australia, 5.2 million people take prescription anti-depressants and yet the nation has declared a fatwa on nicotine. Fascinating what is declared safe and acceptable by the medical fraternity, and what is not. afr.com/companies/heal…
@camjenglish Maybe we should stop thinking of them as smokers, maybe we should think of them as people who smoke. The majority of them started in their youth and struggle to quit later in life.
2/3 It has been prompted because there are currently over 62,000 feedback responses to the call for evidence. Understandably, considering it proposes huge taxes and heavy restrictions on safer nicotine products, backed up by lies from @OliverVarhelyi.
1/2 Here we go again. @PartnershipFree lobbyists are trying to pervert democracy by demanding that the EU ignores public responses to a call for evidence on its excessive proposals for safer nicotine products. smokefreepartnership.eu/news/press-rel…
Palau has asked the UN to put nicotine on the same list as crystal meth, ecstasy and the date-rape drug GHB. The people behind the application are the same lobbyists advising the EU Commission on its TPD revision. clearingtheair.eu/en/post/the-wa… @clearingthe_air
