Forest's first Zoom meeting attracted 33 guests.
Our second online event takes place on Tuesday, May 19, from 6.00-7.00pm.
Chaired by Rob Lyons, author of 'Prohibition: A bad idea that won't go away', our special guest is Chris Snowdon, head of the Lifestyle Economics Unit at the Institute of Economic Affairs.
Chris and I will answer questions but the aim of these events is to generate an informal pub style chat so we will do our best to include everyone who has something to say. (If you just want to watch or listen that's fine too.)
If you smoke menthol cigarettes tell us what you'll miss and how you'll adapt to the ban which comes into force a few hours after the meeting. We'll discuss some of the alternatives including infusion cards, menthol cigarillos, e-cigarettes and heated tobacco.
We'll also talk about the letter Mark Pritchard MP has written to Health Secretary Matt Hancock, urging the government to introduce new restrictions on smoking outside pubs and cafes with outdoor seating if and when lockdown restrictions are lifted.
