MPs to vote on smoking ban and vape sales 'targeted at children'

The UK Parliament is set to vote on new legislation aimed at curbing smoking and vaping among young people.

Additionally, the bill seeks to introduce restrictions on vape flavors, packaging, and point-of-sale displays to make them less appealing to children.
