Rishi Sunak to ban cigarettes in bid to make UK smoke-free for future generations | Oneindia News
British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak is considering introducing a stringent proposal that would ban the next generation from ever being able to buy cigarettes.
These measures are reportedly similar to those implemented by New Zealand in December 2022, which aim to incrementally raise the legal age for buying tobacco products.
Rishi Sunak has unveiled the Conservative campaign bus in Teesside during his tour of the North East. In a speech in front of the blue coach, the Prime Minister sought to draw dividing lines with Labour. He said the Tories are “the ones taking bold action, getting the planes off to Rwanda”, despite the Prime Minister confirming earlier in the campaign that no deportation flights are due to take off before the General Election on July 4.

During a visit to Bury, Prime Minister Rishi Sunak emphasised that the "only poll that matters is the poll on 4th July," downplaying concerns over current Tory poll ratings. Sunak defended his policy announcements as bold and necessary, while criticising Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer's green energy plans as lacking substance. "The British people deserve a lot more," Sunak stated, urging voters to focus on the upcoming election. Report by Covellm.
