Illegal vapes, cigarettes and tobacco seized in Stafford

Trading Standards have seized thousands of pounds worth of illegal tobacco, cigarettes and vapes in an operation across Staffordshire.
The county council says it has seen a huge increase in the number of illegal vapes being sold in shops.
Over the last 6 months it's recovered almost as much, as in the whole of last year. Search dogs joined officers on three raids this morning.

I've never seen anyone use disposable vapes other than children. Not sure why they're even made. If an adult wants to smoke/vape they're definitely not gonna use disposables.

Disposable vapes should be banned, the only people who use such vapes are children. There's no place for disposable vapes in our society. If you are an adult who wants to justify the use of a disposable, you need to look into better options because they are available.

Agreed. As a fisherman I used to get into the water in my waders often to hunt for crayfish and I used to find more vapes than fish
