格拉斯哥市中心已获准开设一家电子烟店，其位置紧邻1903年列为一级保护建筑的麦金托什茶室，引发当地民众和文物保护人士的强烈担忧1。
此前六个月，一家电子烟店发生火灾，摧毁了被列为B级保护建筑的联合角大楼1。2018年，麦金托什设计的格拉斯哥艺术学院建筑曾遭遇两次火灾1。苏格兰消防救援部门曾检查过其他电子烟店，发现了多项消防安全问题1。
麦金托什协会主任马修·威廉姆斯表达了担忧，称"电子烟店带来的火灾风险完全不可接受"1。目前，苏格兰对电子烟店还没有建立统一的许可框架1。工党议员保罗·斯威尼在3月曾呼吁禁止电子烟店在历史建筑内运营1。
尽管当地社会各界呼吁政府采取行动，但苏格兰政府表示规划决定权属于地方当局1。
A vape shop has been approved to open adjacent to the Mackintosh Tearooms, a Grade I listed building dating from 1903 in Glasgow city centre, triggering alarm among heritage advocates and local residents over fire risks.1 The decision comes against a backdrop of recent fire incidents in the city linked to vape retailers: six months prior, a fire at a vape shop in the Union Corner building, itself a Grade B listed structure, destroyed the property.1 Additionally, the Glasgow School of Art, designed by Charles Rennie Mackintosh, suffered two major fires in 2018.1
Scottish Fire and Rescue Service investigations have identified multiple fire safety deficiencies at other vape shops across the region.1 Matthew Williamson, director of the Mackintosh Society, expressed strong opposition, stating that "the fire risk posed by vape shops is completely unacceptable."1 The controversy has prompted calls for intervention, with Labour MSP Paul Sweeney urging in March a ban on vape retailers operating within historic buildings.1 However, Scotland currently lacks a licensing framework specifically governing vape shops.1 The Scottish Government has indicated that planning decisions remain the responsibility of local authorities.1
