#BHN National's numbers out by 3400% counting tobacco sellers in Northland

The National party has been screaming a stat from the rooftops over the last few weeks, and using that stat to justify getting rid of Smokefree 2025, problem is they were wrong, and knew about it 4 days before they stopped using that stat. The claim was that there would only be one store in all of Northland selling cigarettes under the Smokefree 2025 legislation, there were actually 35 planned for the area.
