Indeed your lie that labor provides poor health choices isnt supported by the facts.
But Australia's doctors are urging big tobacco not to head to court.
"This legislation will save lives,'' Australian Medical Association president Steve Hambleton said.
"The AMA urges the tobacco industry to accept the decision and desist from legal action or disruptive tactics designed to delay or stop the introduction of plain packaging."
Cancer Council Australia lauded the legislation's passage as a "great day in public health history".
