Rejected petition ASH (ACTION ON SMOKING AND HEALTH) IS NO LONGER A CHARITY

More details

I call upon the government to inquire into the way ASH (Action on Smoking and Health) has changed its activities from being a charity to now behaving like a political pressure group who are now intertwined with government politicians particularly health ministers.

Is this healthy for democracy?
