“WA’s vapers are going on the attack over a looming ban on the importation of e-cigarettes containing vaporiser nicotine and nicotine refills into Australia. A petition and a fighting fund have both been launched to challenge the decision by the Therapeutic Goods Administration that takes effect from July 1. Members of Facebook group Perth Vaping United have tried to rally support to get the prohibition overturned, urging followers to “dig deep” to donate to Legalise Vaping Australia’s fighting fund. The fund aims to raise $1.5m to mount a legal challenge to stop the “senseless” ban from being implemented. “There has never been a more important time to come together as a community than there is right now. All donations go towards legal fees for the fight,” Stuart Bowerman wrote. “We don’t have much time to raise the funds, but I know as the strong community that we are we can reach this goal and get it done.” As of 12pm on Tuesday, a little over $8500 had been raised.”
