I can't get into the e-cig/vape thing at all. I have a few different types laying around the house....can't use sommit you have to frickin' charge-up for 134 hours beforehand.
It's like non-alcoholic beer, turkey bacon, fat-free milk, and an egg-white omelette.

Total hippy bullsh#t.

I see that the Tories are now saying there will be a cap on the Dementia Tax.

Strong and stable u turns seem to be Mrs May's forte.

I've smoked all my adult life (and some of my childhood too!) and Marlboro Reds still make me sick....but I'm not a heavy smoker...."maybe" a pack a day, but normally much less.
For me the vape thing is an ersatz cigarette....it'll delay me wanting a real ciggie, but it doesn't replace them.

At the same time, it didn't really bother me that much when smoking was banned in restaurants & bars...you just smoke somewhere else.

I smoked from age 16 until 4 years ago. Took about a month to totally swap over to ecigs and never looked back. Feel so much better, and I don't hack my lungs up every morning.

The number of turns this woman has made recently isn't looking good on her relying on the strong and stable mantra.

All I'm seeing now from the right are the links between Corbyn and the IRA. It's the one thing they're clinging on to, despite the Tories having a former IRA member in their midst.

Would you rather that she stick doggedly to a theology that is not perfect than adapt to changing times??
Surely a certain amount of flexibility is key in furthering society's goals.
It's no different in law with the whole ethos of "let the punishment fit the crime" and differing sentences for what on the surface could be viewed as the same crime.

Circumstances dictate consequences.

This is the person who cut police numbers then told the police federation they were crying wolf when they said low numbers put us at risk.

The same person who has put troops on our streets because we've not got enough police to deal with this terror threat.

Yep 15% reduction in police officers since the Tories came in to power and she was the one who implemented it.

but there has been growth in the private security business owned by her husband , so its all alright ........
apart from the SAS running some operations in Manchester yesterday the only troops I have seen on the streets have been around Parliament , how is that meant to keep us safe , it keeps the MP's and the Royals and the Bishops and High Court Judges safe but does F.A for the rest of us .
