In the #EU 🇪🇺, the compromise text of the #Tobacco Tax Directive would be much less effective than the #European Commission proposal since:

- very few Member States would need to raise their minimum tax in 2028 &
- the minimum tax would not keep up with higher inflation rates 📉

Proposed Tobacco-Free Generation Faces Industry Resistance A growing movement advocates for creating a tobacco-free generation through policies aimed at preventing young people from ever starting to smoke. This approach, while not a guaranteed solution, has gained traction as a potential strategy to significantly reduce preventable deaths and secure a healthier future. However, the tobacco industry actively resists these measures, arguing for individual responsibility, freedom of choice, and highlighting potential negative economic impacts and illegal activity. Research consistently reveals that young people often hold inaccurate beliefs about smoking's addictiveness and health consequences, making them vulnerable to targeted marketing by the tobacco industry. The push for a smoke-free generation is not a standalone fix; it requires a multifaceted approach encompassing plain packaging, high prices, restrictions on advertising and flavored products, smoking cessation programs, and public health campaigns. While the prospect of creating a smoke-free generation faces challenges, including the potential for illegal access to cigarettes, proponents believe it represents a vital step towards a healthier society, with support from organizations like the American Heart Association. The core issue remains the tension between public health goals and the vested interests of the tobacco industry, which has historically undermined efforts to discourage smoking.

Wouldn't it be mad if a UK government removed health warnings from #tobacco? Surely it follows that we need to see compulsory #foodlabelling to help consumers make #healthy choices. There's been a decline in use of traffic light system that was so informative e.g. #Lidl.
