They will only get involved when the smoker has punched or abused the council anti-smoking warden or whoever.

Where do these wardens intend to stick the smoking ticket?

Reading the article about the vicar ... I've just remembered the times when teachers and priest-teachers used to smoke inside the classrooms at the schools . Interesting to see if a future from now people will feel the same about allowing for so long people smoking in public enclosed places.

I wonder if anyone has any idea how many laws we have prohibiting this that and the other that are routinely ignored?

I don't know you, but what I've seem in the UK where the laws are in place they really make sure that everybody abides by the laws.

Believe it or not but there used to be by-law in Brighton against walking on the lawns at the Old Steine, Pavilion and the lawns all the way to St Peters church.

People ignored them, then they took the fence down and the lawns are now mostly a mess.

Not being too picky but it is against the law to cycle on the pavement and the undercliff walk.

We seem to ignore them. Perhaps they will go away?

LTNS is right, good for the kids.
Maybe it's not perfect but this partial ban is supported by the majority and in the long run it's good for all.

There have been many a law supported by the moral majority ... Hanging was once such a law and in some places still is, walling up women who refused to bow down to patriarchial dictates was another ...

The best way to stop kids smoking is not to set them alight in the first instance.

On second thoughts I do think society would benefit if some kids were set alight. ASBOs are far to lenient.
