Clearly disposable vapes are individually more wasteful though

I do agree that disposable vapes are a horrible idea. But they’re equivalent to a large number of cigarettes so you can’t just say “bigger than a single butt therefore worse”. At least they’re recyclable in theory, if not often in practice.

This is not a defence of disposables. They’re a ridiculous thing, designed for impulse purchasing by children. Fully support a ban.

I didn’t mean they were the same as a single cigarette butt, sorry if I wasn’t clear - it’s just that one of them has a bunch of lithium and electronics as well as plastic, obviously neither is good but the vape is especially egregious imo!

General community for news/discussion in the UK.

Less serious posts should go in !casualuk@feddit.uk or !andfinally@feddit.uk
More serious politics should go in !uk_politics@feddit.uk.

Try not to spam the same link to multiple feddit.uk communities.
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.

Posts should be related to UK-centric news, and should be either a link to a reputable source, or a text post on this community.

Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.

If you think “reputable news source” needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread.

Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.

Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.
