Smokers dying early doesn’t saves money for the public purse @JuliaHB1 it’s an urban myth created by PMI #BigTobacco https://t.co/DjFzPEZFIW it's not just about money it's about human suffering and premature death from a childhood addiction to a lethal product.

Julia clashes with Action on Smoking and Health’s Deborah Arnott over government plans to offer smokers free vaping kits.

Julia: “If you can afford to buy a packet of cigarettes, you can afford to buy a nicotine patch!”

Deborah: “This is not a lifestyle choice!”

#WeStandWithUkraine @ASHorgUK and @FCAforTC - we are thinking of our Ukrainian colleagues who have worked tirelessly and successfully to reduce smoking prevalence and improve public health and hoping that can become their priority again soon.

[Deborah Arnott @DeborahArnott]

Thank you Clare not just for your work as a GP but also for all you do for the NHS particularly on mental health and addictions @ASHorgUK is proud to have you as a supporter and to collaborate with you to help deliver a #Smokefree2030

[Clare Gerada @ClareGerada]

I have a long read in the @guardian tomorrow comparing my first with my last out of hours shift as a GP. Much has changed.

[Deborah Arnott @DeborahArnott]

you’ve been an outstanding public servant and will be sorely missed - thank you in particular for your outstanding work to help bring the tobacco epidemic to its long overdue end

After more than 30 years in public life as first a local councillor, I’ve decided the next general election would be the right time for me to retire and hopefully do many of the other things I’ve never been able to fit in.

Why oh why aren’t we doing this?

[ASH @AshOrgUK]

Do you trust tobacco industry? 7/10 GB adults don’t. They support govt intervention to limit smoking (82% of Conservative voters, 76% general public) #ActOnTobacco #Prevention @Theresa_May @MattHancock @HMTreasury @SeemaKennedy @BorisJohnson @trussliz

#ActOnTobacco Big Tobacco is more transparent than the IEA - BAT says how much it pays the IEA @GeorgeMonbiot https://t.co/K5j1UoSqZq

[George Monbiot @GeorgeMonbiot]

Well done @EamonnHolmes for asking @cjsnowdon from @iealondon about its tobacco sponsorship. One of the very few occasions on which this has happened. But his claim not to know how much the IEA receives suggests, to put it generously, an astonishing lack of curiousity.

[Deborah Arnott @DeborahArnott]

If you're one of the 40% of smokers who haven't tried ecigs and can't quit - switch to vaping today - its safer cheaper and can increase your chances of stopping smoking successfully.

New Year’s resolutions? Watch this to get the extra motivation to quit cigarettes for good: https://t.co/FsZVec5itH @PHE_uk @DrRosemaryL

@BBCAskThis @BBCNews Neither your deal nor no deal get majority support - the public didn't vote for this - give us a second referendum which gives the majority who now want to stay in a chance to have their say - politicians who don't listen to the public will be punished

[Deborah Arnott @DeborahArnott]

#BBCAskThis Neither this deal nor no deal get majority support - the public want a second referendum and the chance of saying this isn't what we voted for we'd rather stay in why won't you listen to us?
