Tobacco Counters to be Covered up in Shops

The video discusses the new ban on tobacco displays in large shops and supermarkets in England, aiming to reduce smoking rates, especially among young people. The government hopes that removing these displays will make smoking less appealing. Statistics show a decrease in youth smoking in countries with similar bans. While the government and many parents support the measure, some opponents argue it may make smoking more attractive by making it seem illicit. The video also touches on future regulations for small shops and other UK regions.
