The bid to ban e-cigarettes drew anger from suppliers in Britain, where some 1.3 million of the current 10 million smokers have switched to the electronic devices.

With it emitting odour and a bit of smoke it can really bother some people,’ Mr Digard told local radio station France Bleu Cotentin.”
