Urgent petition for EU Public Consultation - please sign

[freakindahouse]

Hi, all,

ECITA has launched a petition today to garner support for appropriate and correct regulation of electronic cigarettes as General Sales Products, and NOT as medicinal products or as tobacco products.

You can find the petition here: Welcome to ECITA, the Electronic Cigarette Industry Trade Association

We hope to roll this out across the European Union, and then present this petition to the European Commission as part of our submissions to this consultation process.

Please lend your support and sign this petition to protect your freedom to choose vaping!

Many thanks,

Katherine
ECITA

Can those of us not in EU countries also sign the petition?

 

[freakindahouse]

Absolutely! The more the merrier! Please do, and tell your friends, your enemies, your cats, dogs, gerbils, hamsters and everyone else you can think of! We want to be delivering a significant number to the EC so that they will realise that they need to take it seriously. (OK, so leave off the animals... unless they have email accounts of course!

Petition signed. Now let's see if I can convince my cats that they do know how to use a computer. LOL

Shouldn't be that hard to get them an email account, Moonrose, and then they can sign their lives away (and save their lungs!)

Freedom of choice for cats: let them vape if they want to! LOL

Oh joy of joys - another futile interwebz petition !!

I bet Clueless-Kate secretly despises you for stealing her idea Freaky ..... and for progressively stealing her thunder and fame too !!

Still, hypothetically speaking, if this petition were to be taken seriously and maybe even have some impact ..... it might be a good idea if ECITA did not encourage, or even light-heartedly infer, that people could/should sign up using fake email addresses and run around gaining fraudulent support from anyone and everyone, as that would very much undermine its validity ..... way to go, Slightly-Less-Clueless-Kate

In case anyone is interested, ECITA has submitted its response to the EU Public Consultation today. The full response can be found here: ECITA submits response to EU Public Consultation on the Tobacco Products Directive - UK Vapers

It's a long one, so you might want to make sure you've got a cuppa to hand...

Cheers,

Katherine
