For Civil Liberties
Pubs should start the Ban Early
they have a 100 days or so until it comes in.
This is a Health Issue
and it makes Good Sense.

Fluffy,
Those stats, if they are available, will probably be hidden along with how many jobs have been lost. |

Anyone got any stats on how many folks have actually given up smoking BECAUSE OF THE NEW LAW, as opposed to the ones who gave up for other reasons and would have attempted to do so without legislation? |

I'm now a non smoker (just) of over two years. I'm against the blanket ban being in place because wherever possible I support free choice for the individual. I get more secondhand smoke now with the pockets of die hard smokers being outside in the street and in pub gardens than I ever did before. I don't blame them at all, after all they have so little choice of venue now..
What a well thought out bit of legislation, patio heaters roast the environment, decent pubs are closing at the rate of 27 a week (allegedly), isn't this just more nanny state stuff?

I though this thread was about straight Tobacco smoking, this is a whole different ball-game.
I smoke, I too drive a car because the bus service doesn`t meet my needs for my shift times. My carbon footprint doesn`t include air travel, at least! |

Be a lot cheaper just to give them the drugs on the NHS and let them get bombed out every day till they die.......
Sounds like a cheaper option |
