Corruption? Scandal? Dirty tricks?
Friday, October 19, 2012 at 15:32 Anti-smoking lobby embroiled in dirty tricks campaign scandal.
Not my words. It's the headline of a report in The Commentator, published this afternoon.
The sub-heading reads: 'Corruption behind the government’s public consultation on standardised packaging of tobacco products'.

"This is one story that looks set to run and run."
I do hope so and that it opens the floodgates of exposure of TC's scandalous activities.
From the Commentator article (at the bottom)
...Press officers at ASH were unavailable for comment at the time of publishing.
How unlike ASH to miss an opportunity for some free advertising. Has this ever happened before? Somehow I doubt it.
They must be a bit rattled - muhahahahahahahahahaha!
I wandered by a website today that reminded me of the antismoking pro-plain-packs video showing the little kids oohing and ahhing over the pretty cigarette packs (while somehow seeming to be totally oblivious to the 50% of the pack covered with gory blood-curdling pictures.) See about the third pic down at:

Think there are any HONEST researchers out there who'd be able to dig up a grant to video kids comparing those packs to the gory cig packs?
