Scottish Government should encourage smokers to swap cigarettes for vapes, poll suggests
Nearly half of Scots think the Scottish Parliament should urge cigarette smokers to smoke vapes instead, a poll has suggested, after a consultation called on advertising rules to be tightened.
The poll, by the Diffley Partnership, asked more than 2,000 people for their views on smoking and vaping. "Vapers are telling us that they are turning to e-cigarettes because they are safer, cheaper and more likely to lead to them quitting for good," he said. It has proposed that "vaping products should be positioned purely as a smoking cessation aid to help those currently smoking tobacco products switch to a less harmful alternative and gradually quit completely".
And, the survey suggested, vapers were increasingly turning to their local stores rather than the internet to buy e-cigarettes.
