2010/11 – Don’t say you weren’t consulted …

20 Nov

 

Nov. 2010

The EU is proposing to harden laws and enforce even stronger measures against tobacco products – even going as far as prohibiting “walk-in humidors” in cigar stores.

That is very much absolute non-sense.

I am against those measures.

You can voice your discontent – do it, now  – don’t complain later !!

Stand up for your rights – Time to stop these jokers. 

Here’s the EU website and a pdf form that explains the proposed changes :
