Activists have sharply criticized French Prime Minister Elisabeth Borne for vaping at a public meeting of parliament and called for urgent action by authorities to punish her.
A video shared by activists on social media shows Elizabeth Byrne smoking while wearing a mask in the center of the National Assembly hall during a government meeting on Tuesday, July 19, 2022. The video also showed the French prime minister vaping as Sils' guardian, Eric Dupont, spoke to Moretti in front of a microphone.
According to French media reports, this is not the first time Elisabeth Byrne has vaped. On February 16, she did the same this time in the Senate while serving as secretary of labor. Also, in January 2021, Oise's deputy Maxime Minot was disturbed to see Elizabeth Byrne vaping.
Smoking is banned in workplaces open and closed to the public under French public health law, and parliament is not excluded. At the same time, the Prime Minister violated and imposed a fine of 150 euros, in addition to a fine of up to 450 euros if the building superintendent did not post a plan sign indicating the principle of banning e-cigarettes.
