MEP Rebecca Taylor agreed to be in this short three minute film about e-cigs after attending the shocking EU workshop on the 7th of May chaired by the most dangerous European alive today. I predicted on the morning of the shebang that it would be a farce and it didn't disappoint, as Rebecca found out a bit later on.
"Some of the speakers were making assumptions which have absolutely no evidence to back them up"Indeed. Here's the clip (watch for a fleeting cyber-glimpse of your host if you freeze at 0:38).
It is so rare these days that politicians actually listen to the public and act upon their pleas, so she should be congratulated for speaking up for e-cigs. She's often on Twitter and worth following just on the evidence above.
Having said that, she lets herself down badly by believing the utter nonsense about minimum alcohol pricing.
@lifelandlady I am also looking at #MUP for alcohol, which I've been told is supported by pubs & bars (at least in Scotland).

Sigh.
