Absolute ********, Its only your 'one size must fit all' mentality
that makes it be that way. You cant see that allowing pubs to make
their own choices, and the customers to make theirs, IF the
government allowed them to have that authority, solves everyones
problems.


Of course your ******** fails to address the primary reason for the
ban. H&S requires the landlord to provide a safe *smoke free* working
environment which is somewhat difficult to do if smoking is allowed.


Employing smokers doesn't work as that is discrimination and the
employer *still* needs to provide the safe environment even if the
smoker wants to kill himself.


But thats entirely the point Dennipoo's. Passive smoking is a myth. There
is no health risk.

The legislation is entirely about punishing smokers. Not that its working
of course, smoking has increased by around 6.5% in the last 10 years.
