We are thrilled that the Tobacco and Vapes Bill has today passed its Third Reading, taking us one step closer to the first smokefree generation 📢🚭
It will now start its journey through the House of Lords where we urge peers to support it for a #SmokefreeUK
This general election needs to be a turning point for people affected by cancer.
I'm calling on party leaders to back Cancer Research UK's calls for #LongerBetterLives

As speculation of a snap #GeneralElection continues to grow The Charity Commission today issue a press release pointing to their very helpful guidance on charity campaigning in a general election year… thus adding to the growing speculation

What would a snap #generalelection mean for #TobaccoandVapesBill?
It would be a travesty if this legislation & life saving legacy for this Parliament was lost #smokefreegeneration
Now reading what happens to public bills before dissolution of Parliament https://t.co/J70cGMXzHx
#InTheNews: The day we’ve been waiting for! New legislation is being brought to Parliament to increase the age of sale for tobacco to help create the first-ever #SmokefreeGeneration across the UK.
Together, this is what we’ve been campaigning for and we urge all MPs to vote in favour.
You can show your support by emailing your MP: https://t.co/aT9Z7ESM1a
‘More than 450,000 cancer patients miss treatment target since 2019’
Almost 1 in 2 will get cancer. It affects every family in every constituency
At the General Election voters will want all parties to have a plan to meet this challenge #cancermanifesto

For my generation fear of cancer was much more reasonable than it now is - as early diagnosis and improved prognoses make presenting symptoms early is just common sense self care
Spotting cancer early can make a real difference. Talk to your doctor if you notice anything that’s not normal for you, or isn’t going away.

1/2 Today, over 125 of our volunteer Campaigns Ambassadors have joined together to call on MPs across the nations to support the tobacco Age of Sale legislation and help create a #SmokefreeGeneration.

One person dies due to tobacco every 5 minutes in the UK. MPs, it’s your turn to make your mark. Help create the smokefree future we all deserve. https://t.co/mpeoUD1exu

Great opportunity to catch up with @CR_UK Cancer Research UK’s Sarah Newman and Charity Campaigns Ambassador Yo Green this afternoon. We are making great strides with this horrible disease, but much more to do. I’ll be running this year’s London Marathon to raise funds…more details to follow soon….
Are you prepared to make step changes in preventing disease @SteveBarclay@RishiSunak? Since smoking is the biggest preventable cause of cancer and death in UK and cost to public finances was £20.6 billion in 2022… a good place to focus more action? #SmokefreeUK@CRUK_Policy
Most people who smoke want to quit, but they need support to do so. That’s why @CR_UK and others are at Westminster to call on the UK Government to take action today
1/We need more funding for tobacco control. But we’re still waiting for UK Govt to act.
A ‘polluter pays’ fund would make tobacco companies – not the taxpayer – pay for this. And MPs from all political parties want a fund introduced.
Want to see change?https://t.co/S9etaayTNj
There are no silver bullets to address enormous harms caused by tobacco. However a 'polluter pays' fund, popular with the public, has support from MPs on all sides, paid for by tobacco industry, not the taxpayer...sounds like a good idea @Jeremy_Hunt@SteveBarclay#SmokefreeUK 👇
