Quite right Jason. I've scoured the MHRA Website and can only find CONSULTATION LETTER MLX 364.pdf which is the Full Consultation with what they have called a "Impact Assessment which is NOT a Risk Assessment of the product because they say "they do not have enough evidence" but make a point of quoting the now discredited, infamous FDA's Press release.

[FONT=Arial,Arial][FONT=Arial,Arial]"at this time the agency has no way of knowing, except for the limited testing performed, the levels of nicotine that may be delivered to the user. The lab analysis of 2 leading brands identified the following [/FONT]
[FONT=Arial,Arial]• The electronic cigarette labelled as containing no nicotine had low levels in all samples except one [/FONT]

[FONT=Arial,Arial]• 3 different e-cigarette cartridges with same label emitted markedly different amounts of nicotine/puff (2.68 to 43.2 mcg/100mL puff) [/FONT]

[FONT=Arial,Arial]• One high-nicotine cartridge delivered twice as much nicotine to the user than came from a FDA approved device authorised for smoking cessation. [/FONT]

Impact Assessment
[FONT=Arial,Arial][FONT=Arial,Arial]22. You are also invited to comment on the possible impact on business of the proposals and options and a draft partial IA is attached. [/FONT]

[FONT=Arial,Arial]So they are using the FDA's discredited Lab Analysis as their Risk Assessment which has been clearly dismissed by Judge Leon.[/FONT]

God bless ya man, God bless ya.
Honestly i can only hope that the info and rights your fighting for can help to open the eyes of spoon fed sheeple around the world.

When it comes down to such matters just like here in the U.S. it all comes down to money. People will often talk about the drain tobacco has on the medical industry but never bother to take a look at the 4 billion dollar profit the government makes each year even after medical costs. The MHRA and the FDA are a fraud. Always have been, always will be.

In America I always got a kick out of how the FDA's food pyramid would change every few years to sate you body needs more of this or that. Kinda funny how it also went hand in hand with what crop stocks were down each year. The human body evolves yes but not every couple of years. Evolution takes hundreds of years in any species.

I have been on ecigs for 4 months now. Until i heard of this product i never dreamed of quiting normal cigarettes. After trying everything i just gave up and said to myself "We all die of something anyway, I will smoke until it kills me".

Switching to ecigs changed my life even at only 4 months in. I never realized how much of a negative impact on my life cigs had until i was finally able to rid myself of them. Being a pack and a half smoker a day for 16 years takes it's toll on you in various ways. I am 31 years old and do allot of physical labor in my career. Upon switching to the ecig i have noticed huge changes in my work.

I have more energy, am no longer sweating at all with what i do and just generally feel great. Work is not the only thing to improve. I am man enough to admit my sex life has also improved dramatically. Before quitting analogs after a night of being out and about bringing a lady home was still always a good time. But after a few minutes i would be out of breath more than i can describe. After switching to ecigs going for a couple of hours at least is easy. This may be more info than most need to know but i only use it as an example that all can relate too that will show how much of an impact the ecig product has made on my life.

Being a resident of the U.S. I am not sure what all of us Americans can do to try and help the issue that is taking place in the U.K. Ihave signed the petitions but not being a citizen of the U.K. is there anything else we can do to try and help this battle? As has been stated in the past I am sure if a victory for big tobacco happens in the U.K. the U.S. will be targeted next.

If a U.S. citizen was to send an email to the MHRA would it help at all, or just fall upon deaf ears? I applaud all who have fought for such a product thus far and would love to help in any way possible. This product really did change my life.

Anyway just a few comments and questions from the other side of the globe and hoping that there is something we can do as well to help halt this sham of a bill from passing in your country. ~Thx
