    It's only a matter of time before we get hit too.Italy have imposed 58.5% tax rate on them due to falling taxes as smokers quit tobacco.

    Start stockpiling some Nicotine guys.
    Portugal are going to hit juices with a massive tax and you know how the muppets we have running the country like to follow suite.

    To summarise 60 cents/ml tax is the proposal .So for ~ prices an increase from ~4 euro to 10 euro (£9) for a 10 ml bottle of e-juice - justification
    "to discourage behaviours with negative consequences for health"

    Was never able to spite the feckers no matter how much they put the fags up due to my chronic ciggie addiction. Thanks to vaping, I feel well capable of breaking my nicotine habit completely should it come to it. I feel sorry for smokers who haven't discovered/tried vaping yet who will lose some of the incentive that I had. For me the switch was incentivised by the savings not health concerns.

    They won't need a Budget if they want to slap a tax on it.
