Recently all I’ve seen in the news is the governments concern with vaping, smoking and the dangers of gambling and its consequence. They spend so much time displaying morbid images on cigarette packets as well as constantly bombarding us with awareness surrounding online gambling etc. They’re bringing in laws to ban cigarettes and prohibit a certain age bracket from ever being able to purchase a pack. As well as a ban on disposable vapes.
On the other hand, you have celebs endorsing bottles of whiskey. As well as Chirpy, whacky and colourful adverts about the latest low calorie Strongbow.
Why is it that Alcohol always receives the free pass?? Especially considering that it’s normally the trigger for a lot of the addictions as well as the one's named above. Have you ever wondered why there’s always a bookies conveniently placed next to the local boozer??
What are all your thoughts on this?? I’d love to hear them.
