This article focuses only on second hand smoke and cancer, and it's full of glaring inaccuracies. But I bet he made a load of money selling his rubbish book to people who enjoy having the wool pulled over their eyes! ;-)

No idea about cancer but the three big ones for narrowing the arteries are supposed to be saturated fat, stress and nicotine. If you can't give up smoking completely then perhaps with eCigs the lack of tar to the lungs means more oxygen in the blood and a bit less strain on the heart?

Vaporisers were popular a few years ago but were expensive and didn't give a proper 'hit'.


When I gave up smoking I used the sprays for a while but they were harsh and unpleasantly 'minty' so just gritted teeth and whined a lot. 21 months smoke free so far.

    • I can't access the article - what's the gist?  I took the markets getting jittery when she was crying at PMQs to be a sign that they trusted her. But maybe it was because they were simply worried about any form of instability.  The NIC hikes have stymied the economy, which we could all see a mile off. Will a wealth tax improve things? Does anyone here think the trickle down has any impact and that chasing out the super rich will help things? Or are we just seeing off the biggest contributors to the economy? And has the Kwasi approach ever worked anywhere else?  Economics is not my strong point at all, I'd love to know others' opinions, but it seems to be she has few options, especially as the party is so divided. 
    • does either of them have a surgery? probably not over summer, but I thought they had to give the opportunity for their constituents to meet them.
    • MaryT, I’ve contacted the Dulwich Hill councillors several times in recent years, always copying them both in. I have never had an acknowledgment from Jon Hartley (not even an automated response or out-of-office) nor had any response or engagement from him regarding the issue raised.   On each occasion, only Maggie Browning responded (she uses an out-of-office if she is away). The last time, I received no response from either for 3 months, until Maggie Browning emailed me to apologise for not responding and asking if the problem had been resolved.
    • The  Kwasi effect is being considered.
