Schoolkids are getting hooked on a non-smoking tobacco that is banned from sale in the UK. Snus – pronounced “snoose” – is made from ground-up leaves packed into a pouch, which is placed under the top lip. Football managers have warned its use is on the rise among professional players, who use it as a stimulant. And while it is “safer” than smoking, experts say snus is highly addictive – and has links to head and neck cancer, receding gums and burn-like mouth lesions. A Sunday People probe found scores of youngsters raving about it on TikTok. One video shows a girl in school ­uniform, seen with her friends holding tins, captioned, “What snus have everyone got today?” Another clip refers to “opening the snus can at school”.

The UK will support Ukraine said Deputy Prime Minster Dominic Raab, as Russian troops mount near the Ukrainian boarder and the escalating tensions between the two nations look set to kick-off into a full-blown invasion. The Deputy PM's comments come after the Foreign Office accused Russia of plotting to install a pro-Kremlin government in Kyiv, and Ukraine's ambassador to the UK declared the former Soviet state will "fight to the death" prompting World War Three fears . The Deputy PM told Sky News : "We will support them [Ukraine] in defending themselves." If Russia attacks Ukraine, Raab said it is "extremely unlikely" that the UK will send in troops.

The laughing gas epidemic is now so rampant that kids are buying it in industrial-sized containers. Dozens of deaths have been linked to the craze for inhaling nitrous oxide, which is used by dentists to sedate patients.

The £35 units are legal as the gas is used in whipped cream.
