Talk:United Kingdom to introduce graphic images on cigarette packets

Innacurate: UK first to introduce
Belgium had already a long time graphic images on cigarette packets. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 219.99.216.139 (talk) 06:08, 29 September 2008 (UTC)

The United Kingdom is set to become the first European country to place graphic images on cigarette packets. UK is not the first European country to do this. Romania has been using graphic depictions on cigarettes for a few months.

 * Not sure about Romania, but I do know Canada, although not a European country, also has similar images on their cigarette packs. DragonFire1024 (Talk to the Dragon) 21:07, 28 September 2008 (UTC)

My point was not that Romania was the first to do so, it was that UK is not, and I gave one example of such a prior decision. Also, please respect formatting guides, and post new messages at the bottom.

 * The difference here is "graphic" versus "explicit". It is the latter interpretation of the term being applied to the UK's new packaging. --Brian McNeil / talk 10:29, 29 September 2008 (UTC)
