I haven't read the whole of this thread yet, but this is utter bollocks.Originally posted by NumptycornerObviously you're one of those people who complains but doesn't actually go in pubs anymore, most have a/c these days. Really, there is nothing worse than the ex smoker smoking nazi.
Smoking in pubs..It bothers some ex smokers, it bothers lilly livered people who go for the occasional drink at Christmas. Genuine pub drinkers don't care.

I'm feeling so ill. I've been having heart palpitations and had to have an ecg today, and tomorrow I have to drive over 100 miles to my contract. I know you don't care, I just had to tell someone.

I'm a bit short this month, so can only stretch to £50, all in.

Why's the smoking ban always bracketed in with 'nanny state' lefty politics etc plenty of countries have implemented it now, quite a few of them very much on the right of the political spectrum.
Face it, the smoking in public places ship sailed a while ago. Bitching and moaning about might make you feel better but in a couple of years time if you do a survey I'd bet my mortgage that the number of people who agree with it will have increased, the number of smokers will have gone down and eventually the percentage of your tax money getting spent on smoking related disease will be less (I doubt they'll cut tax somehow).
