Labour's Deputy Leader Angela Rayner ditches cigarettes for a vape

In a surprising move, Labour has given its backing to Chancellor Rishi Sunak's smoking ban. Even more surprising is the sight of Labour's Deputy Leader Angela Rayner discreetly puffing on a vape at the party's conference. Rayner, who has previously been seen smoking cigarettes, now appears to have kicked the habit with the help of a vape.

Rayner's transformation from cigarettes to vapes

Rayner, who has been caught taking a cheeky drag of a cigarette before, now seems to have fully embraced the switch from smoking to vaping. This marks a significant change for the Labour leader and her public image.

Rachel Reeves confirms party's support for smoking ban

Yesterday, Rachel Reeves, a prominent figure within the Labour Party, announced that the party supports the Tories' plan to abolish smoking. Addressing the issue, she expressed concern for the Conservative Party, jokingly asking what they would write their next policy on, with a shortage of cigarette packets.

Rishi Sunak's historic crackdown on cigarettes

Chancellor Rishi Sunak is leading an ambitious campaign to crack down on smoking. He plans to raise the legal age for smoking every year until there are no smokers left. With smoking being the single biggest preventable cause of illness, disability, and death, Sunak is determined to eliminate it for good. Under his proposed changes, a 14-year-old today will never legally be sold a cigarette.

The details of Sunak's anti-smoking measures

Sunak's tough anti-smoking measures involve incrementally increasing the legal smoking age by one year every year. The ultimate goal is to make it illegal for anyone to buy cigarettes. The ban would be subject to a "free vote" in Parliament, meaning MPs will not be instructed on how to vote by their party. This move ensures that the decision will be made based on individual beliefs and opinions.
