Petition Don't ban menthol cigarettes

Plain packaging is coming into force and there is a proposal to ban menthol cigarettes.

Menthol cigarettes makes up a large percentage of smokers and has existed for almost a hundred years.

Ban other flavours but make an exception for menthols like the US.

More details

I thought all cigarettes were the same, so why treat some cigarettes different to others?

- Ban flavours, keep the menthol

- Halt any new anti-tobbaco law for at least 10 years

- Don't allow cigarette prices to reach £15 by 2020
