    Phillip Morris makers of Marlboro are to stop making cigarettes and seeking to replace with e-cigarettes.

    It says their ambition is to stop selling cigarettes in the UK <laugh>

    So basically they will sell them to every other ****er apart from us <doh>

    well, they're just as addictive yet less damaging, so their customers will be customers longer. I imagine the profits are better too.

    I guess within 20 years you will only be able to get E cigs.

    but sooner they ban cigs the better, pointless vile habit for weak minded people

    As an ex smoker I’m not gonna get all ‘holier than thou’ over this, I’ll just say that kicking the habit is one of the best ( and most difficult) things I’ve ever done.

    My guess is that in 10 years they will have evidence that vaping is bad for you and moves will be made to ban e-cigs. Phillip Morris are just cashing in whilst they can, it's a dying company.

    In a nutshell that's about right. Plus vapers piss me off anyway, how ****ing high do they need to have them things set? People moaned about cigarette smoke but vapors create a cloud big enough to lose their big ugly head in and choke every other fcker out!

    Anyway, while people are sticking the boot into tobacco smokers, when are McDonalds and Coca cola also going to cease trading. Anyone been to the states and seen the obesity rate out there. How about Diesel engines, when they going to stop making them. When we going to exterminate moron drivers, that kill people on our roads everyday. Oh and while on the topic, did people know the smoking ban has been in place for a decade now, but the average age of person living in the UK has dropped and for those that are living longer, good old dementia is waiting for you, I think it kicks in just before you start pissing your pants...enjoy your longevity <ok>

    I'm off for a cig...

    But smoking is cool. Imagine Humphrey Bogart with an e-cig. Doesn't ****ing work does it?

    You wouldn't understand because you are the opposite of cool. All your clothes undoubtedly come from Primark, and you probably think Brian Adams is the king of rock n roll.

    They dont harm anyone but those that are eating them, smokers harm everyone around them with second hand smoke.

    Off to McDs for a king mac burger or 3...
