Well if what is discussed is the example and not the issue being raised ... yep

Nah. It's that we fucked ourselves in the ass

And the politicians will serve you a second helping, after the global market is done with the UK.

Sorry, but I have to disagree with this. Don't worry I didn't take it as an insult or anything. I'm quite Scottish, but just believe in remaining in the UK and label myself as British and Scottish.

Believe it or not, I don't have much in common with the English. I'm as Glaswegian as can be. Confusing I know.

Indeed.

Get your arse over here. We'll hook you up with a man that looks good in a kilt. Your separatist tendencies will be appreciated. There's an unstated understanding between women who have come up to Scotland and shacked up with a Scotsman.

No, the first advertising ban on a device and any of it components that has other uses .... The tobacco ban is against tobacco, not the devices or components that can be used to smoke ....

Note Tobacco was banned on "Established" grounds 

Nicotine was banned on disputed facts  .... not "Established"

E cigarettes and their components are products that have not, nor can not, be shown to be a health risk without adding other substances ...

Note I am concerned about the advertising ban, not the other aspects of the directives that led to the legislation ...

But knocking someone without investigating the facts is the slippery slope ....

Once one product/device/idea/ can be banned from promotion is accepted without "Established" grounds what is next?

I don't really get it. Are you saying that along with leaving the EA there's a sneaky amendment in the same referendum that calls for the banning of certain adverts?
