        @BBCBreaking EU Parliament vote seems sensible. Tougher laws for cancer producing cigarettes no unnecessary rules for safer e-cigarettes

        @BBCBreaking What? ban on menthol cigarettes? These European Union people are so weird. We need to make sure we control our own country.

        @BBCBreaking Menthol is not safer, rather only slightly less lethal than 'normal' cigarettes!
