Cigarettes sold in plain green packs under new rules

Cigarettes sold in plain green packs under new rules New rules have come into force which mean cigarettes and tobacco must be sold in plain green packets and carry graphic health warnings.

The rules, which also end the sale of packets of 10, are designed to deter young people from taking up the habit.

Health groups have welcomed the measure, as the number of smokers in the UK continues to decline.

But a smokers' group says the changes "infantilise" consumers and will make no difference to public health. BBC News
