If they invented a product today, that was addictive, hooks customers as kids and kills 2/3 it would not be allowed or tolerated on shop shelves. Action announced today is bold, but not disproportionate – it's long overdue common sense @RishiSunak@NeilDotObrien
"The boldest action to reduce smoking in a generation. Fresh and cancer survivor Sue Mountain welcome announcements today by the PM to reduce our biggest killer and cause of health inequalities @RishiSunak@NeilDotObrien@CMO_England https://t.co/h7SFoa9ocb
We are very excited to welcome partners tomorrow at the regional Leadership for a Smokefree Future conference! We look forward to 🔽
✅A fantastic line up of regional & national speakers
✅Hearing how NHS & LAs are working together to reduce smoking
Addictive. Most users start as kids and regret it. Kills up to 2 in 3...they'd never allow it on the shelves if invented today. @RishiSunak@NeilDotObrien absolutely right to consider further action to create a #SmokefreeFuture
https://t.co/LbT8Wyj9Cn If the Government is serious about making England smokefree by 2030, it needs to reduce youth uptake as well as help adult smokers quit. ASH strongly supports raising the age of sale, it’s worked well in the US and is popular with the public.

WE WELCOME THIS. We have been making the case to raise the age of sale to 21 for many years. It's vital the Govt does all it can to end the appalling health inequalities from smoking.
Always a logistical challenge but a great opportunity to meet local authority and NHS partners supporting #Stoptober. Outstanding organisation from @neilgreen2023
Stoptober is back! We join partners this #Stoptober encouraging smokers across the #NorthEast to join thousands of others giving quitting a go for the month of October.
"You know you're getting the real cigarettes and won't get a sore throat in the morning!!" reassured the Steward over the tannoy to a plane filled with families.
Fantastic to see our #SmokingSurvivors campaign coming to life across #Northumberland, #TyneAndWear, #CountyDurham & #Teesside! Brave survivors Cathy & Sue are inspiring smokers to give quitting another go.

@NUFCLC 18 months ago we signed Chris Wood to try to weaken a relegation rival and stay in the Prem. Now, not signing both of the continent's best available midfielders is seen as a failure. Take that as progress..
@Dan19LFC@JoshLFC1909 18 months ago we signed Chris Wood to try to stay in the Prem. Now failing to get both of Europe's top midfielders is seem as failing.. I'll take that as progress!
@MartinSLewis@ofgem Gosh, it's almost as if the privatisation of utility companies was aimed to benefit shareholders and big finance rather than the ordinary person 🤔
@LukeEdwardsTele@NUFCMoments Luke, where in your view is the number one position the club would like to strengthen now? Or does it simply come down to opportunities in the market?
