the smoking ban will be hard to please evryone. On the one hand, I, myself as a smoker welcome it because i can try and give it up after the best part of 8 years. on the other hand, establishments should be able to choose so that the oldman/hardman/'secretsquirrel*pubs can cont to allow smoking, an' all the trendy/gay/fucknows wot etc places can have no smoking.
The litter law is fuckn stupid though. taxes which smokers, but usually myself don't pay go towards street sweepers amogst others.
*secretsquirrel pubs is a term where people who aren't meant to be there can indulge in booze/fags/'other' without the other half/parents et al knowing. There used to b such a pub near my old place in somers town.

The crunch will come when some c**t decides to spike an innocent lass while she is outside having a smoke and uses the chance to strike.
Or, the less cool folks in our society passing a pub and using the crowd outside to do what they do best. act like fucking dicks! basically it sucks and the Govt should be ashamed of themselves. Public school arse!

farts yes, but when you're in a pub you notice everyone elses b.o and vomit smells - nice
we've had a pubs smoking ban in New Zealand for a couple of years now, and as a non smoker i quite like not stinking like cancer when i get home.
i don't mean to offend anyone, but shit like this pisses me off...
i hate it when smokers just drop their cigarette butts anywhere and everwhere - first they pollute the air, and then the streets, bastards. we should have hefty fines for that shit too

It's a difficult one, I welcome it on the one hand because as a non-smoker, why should I have to inhale your smoke in the pub and put myself at risk of illlness just cos you want a cig? You can still go an have one outside the pub. On the other hand I think people should be given the right to choose what they do generally.
But then saying that, non-smokers should have the right to choose not to inhale smoke right? And seeing as it's the smokers causing the smoke it's them that need to take it outside.
You could probably argue both sides but I think it always comes down to the fact that the smoke is harming others and that's the basis for the law and it's been banned in most public places for ages anyway, you'd never dream of smoking in a shop or on a train or whatever, just pubs and restaurents really that are being affected. For years smokers have had thier own way and the non-smokers have had to put up with it so now it's payback time

the big selling point from the government over here was the health of the workers in the bars - people who have to do a whole shift in a smokey environment
RE: smoking ban - mr.pure - 06-07-07
I'm glad it's come in, give it a few months and I sure as fuck won't be standing outside while my mates have a fag.
Pirate ! Stop smoking !
