@NannyFreeState @DrMtyndall Thankyou @DrMtyndall perhaps you will embolden others to speak out- not holding my breath (now for impressive amounts of time thanks to #THR) but your calling out of the cult like behaviour of tobacco control is much appreciated. 🙏

"Dear friends and global citizens who smoke cigarettes: It is truly embarrassing and inexcusable the way you have been treated by the public health community. By their actions, they are basically telling you all to drop dead."

Reverse spin bias. "Thirteen systematic reviews reported findings that e-cigarettes were significantly more effective than other cessation methods but only three review author teams recommended their use as a cessation treatment." https://t.co/Gp0UGchK01

Australian tobacco control increasingly operates on a moral rather than empirical framework. Nicotine is treated as a singular evil, not as a spectrum of risk. If a product resembles smoking, it must be stamped out. If people want it badly enough to create a black market, that is

Testing "passive vaping" in a tiny, sealed 2m³ box isn't science, it’s a setup. By ignoring real-world ventilation and human lung retention, this study creates a "worst-case scenario" that doesn't exist in reality. #harmsearching

A recent laboratory study examining how vape emissions change over time indoors has been cited as evidence of potential risks from “passive vaping”. But

"Tobacco control under the WHO Framework Convention on Tobacco Control provides the clearest and most mature example of philanthro-capitalist influence in global health."

"These results show that dual use promotes genuine harm reduction and that it can be a useful step to stopping smoking altogether." <- But the highly-funded tobacco control industry strongly objects. Come to your own conclusions as to why. #NotAboutHealth

Smokers who use cigarettes and vapes at the same time are more likely to eventually quit smoking than those who only smoke tobacco.

This coming from the @WHO who have been bought and paid for by an egotistical philanthropic maniac @MikeBloomberg to spread lies and misinformation. One would hope that an organisation like the WHO would actually look at the scientific evidence from independent research, the

@WHOWPRO Your ridiculous Q&A about vaping is filleted and dismantled here in its entirety by @Clive_Bates: https://t.co/WrxnKIiDw1 The screenshot below is about the "second-hand ENDS emissions". 👇

@_RootsofReality Nicotine does not cause cancer, heart or lung disease. DEMONIZING it was a paternalistic tactic that maybe made sense in the 1990s and earlier, when the primary source was deadly cigarettes. Today we're saddled with a legacy white lie. A violation of Truth-Telling.

Research funders have unique influence over which scientific questions are worthy of pursuit (and often what the answers are). Funders' focus on harm (as opposed to harm reduction) has compromised nicotine research. Covered in my Substack series: https://t.co/F2P64GpGrz

It really shows how badly the policy is failing. These shops get shut down, then reopen a few days later as if nothing happened. If the same illegal products keep coming straight back, the law clearly isn’t working. It’s not enforcement, it’s whack-a-mole. That’s a sign of a
Tobacco stores selling illegal cigarettes and vapes are being shut down, only to open days later. Seems like a pretty big loophole @jamomartin @edjegasothy @drjoesDIYhealth

A reminder for 2026: Sadly, one cannot believe anything that @Independent publishes anymore. It's impossible to know if they are just peddling garbage because their journalists are incompetent or if they are being paid to do so.
Stop posting garbage, @Independent. "E-cigarettes don’t cause the lung condition known as popcorn lung. There have been no confirmed cases of popcorn lung linked to e-cigarettes."

❄️ Who wants to stand outside in the snow for a smoke? Not us. And you shouldn’t have to, because safer alternatives are here. Let’s be clear: Nicotine pouches, snus and vapes are far less harmful than cigarettes. This isn’t about choosing the "lesser evil". It’s about choosing
