And other tobacco products will be expected to follow suit by 2010.

The Department of Health said the written warnings had been a success with research showing more than 90,000 smokers had been motivated to call the NHS quit line because of them.
Text did work for a while, but then i assume all you smokers became desensitised to the warnings on our packet labels, so now the UK is going one better.
Question to the smokers board is, will it make a diff visually seeing the damage you're inflicing on yourself, or will you just end up desensitised and not really care?
