Clouds Cancelled: Is It Time to Ban Vaping? Episode 660

Niall is joined by journalist Derek Byrne to discuss new restrictions in England that will ban vaping in cars carrying children, playgrounds, areas outside schools and hospitals, and anywhere smoking is already prohibited. Under the rules, vaping is effectively being treated like cigarettes — with fines for those caught vaping in cars with under-18s.

The move has reignited debate about whether vaping has gone too far, with some arguing it’s addictive, heavily marketed to young people, and should never have been allowed in the first place.

Should Ireland introduce similar bans in public places, cars, and outdoor areas where children are present? Call in and have your say — Niall wants to hear what you think.
