There’s an issue exposing fault lines within our political parties and pitting their traditional supporters against each other, fracturing the electorate.

That issue is the new ban on vapes, which is set to pass parliament at the end of the month.

Today, special correspondent for The Saturday Paper Jason Koutsoukis, on the politics of the new vaping ban – and why it will be hard to police.
