the alleged health scares have been deliberately used to support a

You are a typical addict.. any evidence that goes against your drug is
wrong. There is loads of evidence that smoking is harmful you just
choose to ignore it.


There's also loads of evidence that alcohol harms many many people - more
die from its effects each month than die in a year from heroin. Nor can
you say it only effects the users - many city centres are near no go areas
due to its abuse.

So I just hope as a likely boozer you'll be just as in favour of a similar
restriction on that when it comes - as it will, given all government's
love of control.
