This is a widespread view from people who would not share my outlook on the Bill in general. The noble Earl, Lord Russell, made his point about all the things that he supports; I think that they are draconian, frankly, but we agree on this bit. Also, ASH, which I do not normally agree with, has found that fruit flavours are by far the most popular choice of vape flavours. The Government’s own impact assessment found that restricting flavours could mean that 80% of adults who vape could be affected, which could mean that they go back to smoking cigarettes. That is one reason why I am worried about how the legislation is being posed.
