Fighting for a fair go for Australian vape retailers and advocating for the legalisation and regulation of nicotine vaping products. Vaping saves lives!

[ARVIA @retail_vaping]

Hear from @retail_vaping Committee Member and Vapour Power owner Malcolm Bodie plead with Australia’s decision makers to follow the UK, Canada and New Zealand to legalise and regulate #vaping and save lives.

Smoking kills 20000+ Australians each year. Vaping is at least 95% less harmful than smoking. Vaping gets smokers off cigarettes. Why does #bigpublichealth continue to ignore the facts?

[ARVIA @retail_vaping]

#FlashbackFriday to that time @TGAgovau tweeted that #ecigarettes can help smokers quit and how Australian smokers can legally access nicotine. The TGA then secretly deleted the tweet a few hours later!

Facts rather than ideology. This is what Australian smokers need. @ColinMendelsohn @AlexWodak @ATHRA_AU @LegaliseVaping @vaper_the

[Australian Tobacco Harm Reduction Association @ATHRA_AU]

Forget the headlines! The 2019 @aihw drug survey strongly suggests that #vaping is helping to REDUCE smoking in young people

Vaping #nicotine should be readily available to assist older smokers whose smoking rates have remained stagnant since 2013

@SarahWhisar @paulzahra_1 @retailaustralia It’s not just the RACGP and RACP, there’s a whole host of reputable medical organisations that accept the international peer-reviewed scientific research. Are they all wrong?

[ARVIA @retail_vaping]

We have clearly hit a nerve with the anti-vaping lobby by calling out their reliance on tobacco taxes ad the reason for their vociferous unscientific opposition to the most successful smoking cessation tool in history.

[Tobacco Free Aust @tobaccofreeaust]

Again, misleading comments and spin by @retail_vaping and of course no conflict of interest here ... surely @paulzahra_1 will not allow these falsehoods to be promoted by ARVIA

[ARVIA @retail_vaping]

An excellent example of the evidence based approach to #vaping being pursued by health groups in the UK 🇬🇧 and globally 👏

[Smokefree Sheffield @smokefreesheff]

Did you know e-cigarettes can actually help you stop smoking?

Check out our little fact sheet to find out how https://t.co/sNLACWnlWl

[ARVIA @retail_vaping]

The 2019 @aihw report on household drug use shows Australia has yet again failed to meet its national smoking target.

Report also shows #vaping is displacing smoking more than any other single government policy.

[ARVIA @retail_vaping]

The US @FDATobacco authorisation that Heat Not Burn tobacco products significantly reduces exposure to harmful chemicals is yet another major international regulatory win for #vaping.

Completely exposes recent unscientific @TGAgovau decision.

OUTRAGEOUS!
@ATHRA_AU director @colinmendelsohn has been slandered by Fairfax Media, falsely claiming he has received tobacco company funding

[ARVIA @retail_vaping]

A great interview by @AlexWodak of @ATHRA_AU explaining why the proposed nicotine imports ban is a terrible idea, and the need to legalise and regulate less harmful vaping products.

.@ATHRA_AU Director @alexwodak explains why the proposed #nicotine #vaping restrictions will be bad for public health but good for the blackmarket

Australian vape retailers are modern day quit smoking clinics. They have helped and supported hundreds of thousands of Australians give up deadly #combustible #cigarettes using #nicotine #vaping.

ABC radio Melbourne is running a program on vaping starting minutes away at 11:00. If you’re a vaper, please ring in & tell them your own experience. 0437 774 774. #Vaping

[Alex Wodak AM @AlexWodak]

Excellent account by @ColinMendelsohn of that was the week that was: de facto nicotine ban Australia announced 19 June, postponed 26 June. 28 government MPs protested. But antis say all bought by Tobacco Companies! @PPHA_AU @retail_vaping @LegaliseVaping

Thanks for helping to save over 300,000 vapers from an uncertain future @scottmorrisonMP. But now @greghuntmp has set #BigPublicHealth loose. Nothing but falsehoods from #vapesciencedenier @SanchiaAranda and the @cancercounciloz on @RadioNational with @normanswan #auspol #vaping

[ARVIA @retail_vaping]

Thank you @billshortenmp for your sensible, evidence-based position that lifelong smokers should have legal access to less harmful alternatives to smoking. Retailers are committed to working with you & @AustralianLabor on #vaping.

#vapingsavedme #vapingsaveslives #auspol

[The Today Show @TheTodayShow]

The decision to BAN vaping imports has been pushed back until next year. #9Today

[ARVIA @retail_vaping]

Thanks especially to thousands of Australin vapers - all ex-smokers - who stood up and spoke out. They can now hear you and they now understand that #vapingsavedme

[ARVIA @retail_vaping]

Retailers strongly welcome the decision by @GregHuntMP to withdraw his ill-conceived nicotine import ban.

We continue to call for vaping to be legalised and regulated so that more smokers have the opportunity to quit, like in 50+ countries.

#auspol @LegaliseVaping @ATHRA_AU

[ARVIA @retail_vaping]

Thanks to the many @LNPQLD @LiberalAus @The_Nationals MPs, Senators @mattjcan @stoker_aj et al for listening and fighting. 400,000+ vapers are grateful.

[ARVIA @retail_vaping]

Vapers, retailers, family call in to @BenFordham @2GB873 on 131 873 and explain why the senseless vape ban MUST be ditched by @ScottMorrisonMP.
