Sharpe's Opinion
Wednesday, 14th Oct, 2009
…Comes from Lib Dem MP Sandra Gidley, arguing that cigarettes should be sold in plain packages:
There would not necessarily have to be a display ban here, as the new clause might make the display much less attractive by making the package less attractive. There are examples of packages designed to attract women, who may like the package because it is sparkly and attractive, so they want to get their hands on it.
Tom Harris, who has a handy guide for Ms Gidley explaining the difference between a woman and a magpie.
Comments
Poor woman, the info has obviously been drawn from her own experience. It really is time for a basic test for all PPCs.
Presumably having been forced to buy something sparkly by their genes, women are then forced to smoke the contents and then discard the container?
I would be interested to know what Ms Gidley thinks the mechanism for that is.
