God save THE VAPE

A Milton Keynes vape company has released a bizarre piece of royal memorabilia in the form of disposable vapes modelled on King Charles’ famous ‘sausage’ fingers. The limited-edition set is selling for £49.99 on Riot Labs’ website with royal-themed flavours like “Victoria Sponge”, “Champagne”, and even “Sausage Roll”. Based on the award-winning Riot Bar – the 10-piece collection mirrors the shape and size of the Kings own digits and features his famous gold signet ring. Riot Labs CEO, Ben Johnson said - “We wanted to create a bit of Royal history when choosing e-cigarettes over tobacco is so front of mind.”

Lis-Bon Voyage TO TOBACCO

A new smoking and vaping crackdown is set to be approved in Portugal in hopes of curbing the use and sale of nicotinebased products. The new bill will ban smoking outdoors and near public buildings such as hospitals, bars and sports venues from October 2023. The products will also be prohibited at music festivals. The restricted sale of tobacco will be purchasable in tobacconists, petrol stations and airports by 2025 – discontinuing sales from current vending machine and casinos dispensaries. However restaurants, bars and nightclubs that have dedicated isolated smoking areas will be allowed to continue use until 2030.
