Debating the Ban on Vaping: Coalition Divisions and Complexities

There’s an issue exposing fault lines within our political parties and pitting their traditional supporters against each other, fracturing the electorate.

That issue is the new ban on vapes, which is set to pass parliament at the end of the month.
