Cig majority backs a ban on smoking

LANDMARK's plans to ban young people from ever being able to smoke passed a Parliamentary hurdle last night.

MPs voted in favour of the Tobacco and Vapes Bill by 415 to 47.

The legislation will prevent anyone turning 15 this year - those born on or after January 1, 2009 from ever being able to legally buy tobacco products.

It will also clamp down on youth vaping with fines of £200 to tackle under-age sales and ditching flavours and packaging which appeal to children.
