- Britain is on course to ban smoking for an entire generation after MPs voted in favour of Rishi Sunak's plan, despite facing some rebellion and backlash. The legislation, if passed, will mean that anyone aged 15 or younger today will never be able to buy cigarettes legally. Andrew Pierce and Kevin Maguire join GMB to discuss what the impact of this ban would be should it go through.

You can carry a knife but not a cigarette in London, How funny.
depends on your intention
Depending on the knife
DEPENDING ON YOUR RACE ...
What is absolutely hilarious about the UK trying to ban smoking is that in the USA since 2021 we are moving to INCREASE smoking by making marijuana legal. As of 2024 marijuana or cannabis is now a $40 Billion industry with 15,000 legal dispensaries and it is expected to grow to $115 Billion by 2030. The number of adults who smoke has risen from 7% in 2013 to 13% in 2024, and is expected to gradually increase to about 20% of the population by 2035. So, what is the UK going to do when to get a trade deal with the USA, there might be a demand to legalize cannabis in your country?

Can ban people smoking but cannot ban people entering the country illegally.
It’s not the banning. It’s the enforcement.
its nanny state going mad
Positively encorages them ..

These people haven't a clue! What did alcohol prohibition do for organised crime in the USA?
Prohibition wasnt gradual
WEF puppet
Bot detected
@@AM2K2🤡
Never mind banning smoking, they should be banning something much more important for Britain, illegal immigrants and criminality.
Illegal immigrants and criminality is banned. Hence why it's "illegal" and "criminal"...
And Germany just legalised cannabis 🙄
Cannabis doesn’t have to be consumed by smoking it though. I am prescribed cannabis for ptsd and autism and consume it safely by dry herb vape or ingestion. 💚
@@buttercxpdraws8101I eat cannabis with my rice, I mix it in with some reggae sauce
@@buttercxpdraws8101 I put a bath tub full of cannabis and I wriggle around inside the bath tub (I am joking, I do not have cannabis and I do not put it in the bath tub, lol).

It will never work
Well. It’ll be Law, so, it’s not a case of ‘it working’ or not.
Its another control mechanism, people should have the right to think for themselves. George Orwell springs to mind.
Let's hope this panel don't mind paying more tax after the loss of tax on cigarettes.......
So how would a police officer enforce the law for a future 25 years old in 10 years from now? How will they distinguish between a 25 and a 24? :)
The police cannot catch murderers let alone smokers. Ban alcohol but he won't because fishi likes alcohol
Did they not try this in New Zealand and have to reverse it due to the loss of tax .
there won't be a loss in tax
@@stuartwilson1190 it brings in £10.4 billion at the moment. if you ban it that's going to go down they will need to find that tax another place. none smokers will make up the shortfall.
@@gellideggti While the tobacco industry argue that what smokers pay in tax compensates for the cost to society, the excise tax paid for 2020/21 totalled just under £10bn [5] in England, higher than in previous years but still nowhere near the £17.04bn it cost society in 2019.
@@AM2K2 I read that report too I would like to see a few more of those before I would be swayed. plus other things have caused just as many if not more problems. Alcohol should be on this list before tabaco that's way more Damaging to society Then we get into the matter of policing this. It leads to black markets and unregulated products. Personal choice is also a factor.
@@gellideggti what are you going on about current smokers will still be able to buy so the tax will still be collected.
right now only 3% of new people start smoking and that comes down by 1% a year so when this kicks in their will be no new smokers anyway.
that's why they have made it 3 years from now
This is NOT about children. This is about adults having the right to smoke.
This is a disgrace
@@damianchristie288 It is indeed a disgrace!
Machetes ok. Ciggies won't be tolerated.
Machetes are NOT ok and will get you arrested.
You could say exactly all of the same things about alcohol which actually has worse social knock on effects
They will get around to banning alcohol , just wait and see
How so?
And all the drugs on the streets they ignore!!
Is this supposed to save the Tory party?
Ban Sunak
Imagine being 51 years old and the shopkeeper won't sell you cigarettes because your pal is only 50 and you might be buying for them :'D What absolute nonsense this government is.
group of 49 year olds waiting outside the corner shop asking 51 year olds to buy them a pack of B&H
By the same logic, should we ban alcohol & sugar?
Ban politicians
yes please
In reasonable moderation, those have little to zero affect on one's health. Smoking is destructive & damaging every time.
@@WillLMC96but how can I look like a gansta without a cigarette in my mouth
@@WillLMC96 and there is the hypocrisy. Alcohol everyone is cool with despite it being a factor in crime every single week and that's before we even mention the health risks.
You say moderation like most people drink responsibly. They don't. In fact the culture is to binge drink.
You don't want alcohol banned because YOU enjoy it. It's a factor in 38% of all violent crime.
How about a limit on how much alcohol you can buy and consume in a week. If it's all about health, surely you're in favour of that? 🤔
This cost of living is stressing people out and you're going to ban cigs. Good luck 👍. No 1 is giving up spliffs or my cig break at work.
I hate this Government/Parliament
So do I! Sunak is the worst prime minister in my not-so-short lifetime. And he wasn't even elected.
Smokers, are you?
@@Awibrahor I just told you! No! I am not a smoker.
What has that got to do with smoking!
Conservatives and Labour have completely lost the plot thinking this is the biggest issue people are worried about. Complete distraction tactic
If you're not prepared to ban it for yourself, then don't ban it for disenfranchised people. I find this a very patronising policy and I have children.
Way to on alienating another minority and Labour are aiding the Tories to do this.
Most definitely
Where’s free choice gone
No democracy. Authoritarian state.
Mumbai ...
Yup, less and less freedom of choice. Thanks guys.
Someone start a petition or something please or even just lower the prices❤
Unbelievable equality takes a hit ....hypocrites
how can someone born before the new year 2009 be able to buy them and someone that born the 1st Jan 2009 be banned for full life madness
I think people should have the choice. I do not smoke, but I am glad I had the choice to have one or two on a night out when I wanted one. If you are an adult it should be your choice.
Why do we tolerate drugs and alcohol which causes more widespread damage
That’s what they’re focusing on 😂
What happen to my rights it's my body I should be able to do what i want with it step off!
Why was I able to buy single cigarettes for 5p each on my way to school, in fact it was the shop closest to the school. I’m 56 now with COPD. I’m hopeful for the younger generations
They will still smoke and experiment and it will change nothing at all.
Life.
There taking away our freedom's our little luxury it is terrible but I'm a 30 year smoker and though I wish I did smoke I will not let them take away my freedom to smoke.
Your freedom to smoke isn't being taken away - do you not understand the bill?
You will legally be able to smoke until you die (prematurely). Only current 15 year olds will never legally be able to buy them.
What a load of BS is spoken in this video.
Smoker, are you?
@@Awibrahor No, I am not a smoker, actually.
Ban smoking ok. But that means no tax revenue from smokers. How are they going to replace it and from where?
About time they're implementing Islamic rules !
Next, ban all alcohol !
Are you for real?
I'm fir this as a father
What a joke why don’t they ban aggressive gambling advertisements on TV / gambling mechanisms in video games aimed at kids? Oh yeah because it’s more profitable! Look at how successful the banning of knives and certain drugs has been. Good time to take up a career in black market baccy dealing
PRIORITIES
I know I sound like an hypocrite but I smoked for years and was in denial about the damage it does. I finally stopped 7 months ago after multiple attempts. Id say to young people never start in the first place.
I’m the same I’ve quit a 40 a day habit 🫣 I’ve got four children and I hope they never smoke. My 17 year old shows no interest in cigs but everyone should have freedom of choice. If someone wants to do something they’ll do it. Just my opinion 😊
Yes, you are a hypocrite so you have no right.
I have the right to say it and people have the right to disagree. 👍
True, but it is something no law will stop. Children have experimented sìnce time began and will not stop.
So basically its bad to smoke tobacco but if its made in a factory its okay...
Obesity costs the NHS more. What about fatty foods? 🤔
It's not the fatty foods, it's the amount eaten. one donut is ok, but UK and US will eat 3-4 donuts.
I tell you what costs the NHS more, bad eating education, just like yours! No offence!! If one consumes MOSTLY (
@@kowalskikowalski80803 or 4 boxes more like.
@@kowalskikowalski8080it's ok to smoke a cigarette then
We dont here about the malnourished ppl though.. who die in droves... because they don't cost the nhs lots.
no such thing as conviction politics anymore, or no conviction politicains that are in favour of liberty and individualism
I've actually been thinking this myself, several times, that if smoking is made illegal for kids already below the age where they are not allowed to smoke, then why not this harmful and deadly substance become a thing of the past? Unless some teenager are already addicted to smoking, there should be alternatives, but for example to start in 2025 with making it illegal for anyone born after 2015? But then the taxes imposed on tobacco products should also be used to make available alternative nicotine products for those that in some way or another, because of smuggling and illegal cigarettes, still gain this addiction, just like other addicts get help in some form. It is a harmful addiction, just as bad as many drugs and worse then some things that are illegal.
These people are here to feed you the conversation so you don't even think for yourself. Taking people's freedoms away does not stop people smoking, they will just get the cigarettes illegally, just like all the other drugs. But with it being illegal, you won't just get offered cigarettes and alcohol, it's unregulated and for teenagers, it becomes a larger act of rebellion
so carry a knife in London but you cant carry a packed of cigs
What is this pretentious so called country coming to
I think the GOVERNMENT needs to get off they're high horses, seriously, you work for the people, your a government suppose to be here for the peoples, not in GOVERNMENT to start dictating to people how they should live they're lives, which is not politics. .
who are these clowns.
the genocide already happened
I'm glad I don't live over there. Governments are becoming too controlling everywhere.
Right because banning alcohol has worked wonders when any country tried banning something. This will create a wonderful black market for which they can later say ‘we need more police to combat crime’ and then you’ll have a police state same as the US and by the time the ban will end it’ll be a totally different world.
Let's talk about legalising cannabis but ban smoking that's the most backwards thing i have heard in my 40yrs alive
Very good 👍🏼
Three quarters of adults in England and Scotland (75%) support their government’s smokefree ambition, and 69% of adults in Wales, with similar results for those voting in the last general election for all the political parties represented in Westminster.
Why isn't Boris Johnson in prison? Where is 350mln for NHS?
Ban alcohol too
People's choice to smoke or not whats next no talking in public who do this government think thay are
One thing they will never ban is having to work perhaps they will make people born after 2009 to work until they are 100 years old plus
Black markets loving this move.
Totalitarian Regime!!Black market will get more expensive to smoke!Its like drugs dont come through borders and cigarettes wont get through!😂😂😂😂😂jokers
What nonsense
Alcohol next?
Good ban smoking, it’s disgusting and stinks.
I am not giving my spliffs up for anyone
Well said
The age limit should be raised from 18 to 30 and a weekly limit to about 50 cigarettes or a couple of cigars. Creating a tobacco consumer account with an ID card that must be presented anywhere in shops when buying tobacco would be a reasonable approach. People are less likely to start smoking after the age of 30. Freedom to smoke should never be taken away.
Lunatic
no they should just keep their nose out ...
Not one person to argue the other side. Nanny State troopers.
The fun police strike again 😂
Sunak's "Stop the Smokers" pledge is worse than his "Stop the Boats" BS.
Sunak, you need to deal with more pressing issues like cost of living, rising food prices etc. Get your priorities in order.
Why not just change the VAT on cigarettes to 40, 50 even 60%? Make them hugely expensive. Treasury make more money and it will incentivise some to quit. Only offer prescription vapes to those wanting to quit vs selling them in shops like we do now.
Yes, vaping as well
Cool, can't wait until they do the same thing with alcohol.
Oh, wait...
That's not freedom of choice
Is NHS kosher
So kids are ending up in hospital because of vapes and instead of banning vapes you're banning cigarettes...make it make sense?
Smoking is like doing drugs, people against smoking bans have lost their moral compass
It's a personal choice also for drugs, stop this nannying!
When the Americans banned alcohol everyone bought it illegally from criminals. Guess who will benefit most from Rishi's smoking ban?
I'm just here to thank the government for setting up a black market for me, good work all..,
They will create a black market for tobacco. Sensible smokers will start growing their own. Parliament will ban tobacco before everyone is too old to buy it.
Ed says why fill your lungs whe you don’t know what the long term effects are goibg to be. Remember that the next time someone is attacked for not having a covid jab or something similar
This won’t work, it’ll just create more of a black market. I was able to buy cigarettes as a 14 yr old. It might not have been legal, but was so easy to do if you knew where to go.
Can we outlaw the animal abuse and slaughter industries: meat, leather, fur, dairy, eggs, medical research etc?
Right, OK then, ban alcohol too, just as bad............
Every where great Britain
they just passed a bill that results in different legal adults having different rights and freedoms. yeah smoking is bad, but this is far worse. sure people born in 2009 are 14 years old now, but in 20 years they'll be 34, and have limited freedoms and liberties compared to somebody who is 35. how is this justifiable on any level?
Good...next up is alcohol
You want the government telling you what you can and can't do. Despite being an adult.
@@jonnycola86 The NHS can't take much more and the selfish folk who insist on smoking and drinking just add to the strain, either that or just ban smokers and drinkers from using the NHS system.
stop trying to shake off the genocide
I was just thinking this myself 👏 👏
@@nicholawilson8555 they are trying to shove it under the rug
😊😊😊👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Idiocrasy! 🤪
It would be better can't see it working though
He can swivel
Next will be alcohol. And i thought the nazis lost the war. (Woops i mentioned the war sorry )
This generation will be smoke free , I don’t know which is worse this or net zero electric ev cars trans Islam , the future looks good
My body my rules....
Ban policy of smoking for the country is well come move by govt. Smoking is no doubt injurious to health & save the many immature life.just to think & decide
yet you can smoke freely in India .. ????
W rishi
Smoking is not a "horrible, disgusting habit"! And even if it were, what has that got to do with government?
It is the most dememnted thing I have heard since the Scottish hate crime law was passed.
Of the government really cared it would be FULLY BAND but at the same time they don’t have the right or will have the LAW to band anyone…
What music does this band play?
