Think about it logically, come off cigarettes to vaping. Taxing vape will lose votes in election year.Of course tobacco will be taxed as always in U.K. we have this every year before budgets, bears sell tobacco stocks. |
100% sure he won't. |
Just reading that the chancellor could be putting Tax on vaping, which will probably send the share price crashing yet once more again, not sure if this is factor or . fiction |
This will be in the teens after the budget. They would be better moving listing to the US, would be an instant 30 pc uplift just getting out of brexit basket case dog index of the world U.K. ftse, net outflows every year since 2016, it’s maths I’m afraid, can only go down which is exactly what the charts all indicate, needs to get off the ftse. |

of course they dont,just look at the people in the street to see where the problem is,i call them the waddles and what really gets me is the amount of young women so big they can hardly walk.. |

i assume you got those figures from the anti smoking outfit called ash who if you read their article they have even allowed cost to some really stupid things to make up that amount.
i dont smoke now after over 40 odd years of smoking and have been playing sport today in my seventies, but the article says all these people falling ill from smoking at a young age which i have never ever seen,i expect they are probably obese as well which is the largest cost to the nhs which is getting so bad its crippling and the costs far out way smoking and they dont die earlier and they problems star when they are young.
just looked it up obesity is costing the nhs 10% of their of their whole budget and that is some money.. |
