They pay billions more in tax than their smoking related diseases cost to treat, thus hugely subsidising the health service, and they die younger so costing the state much less in pensions. Without them the country would be even more broke. And the government are trying to stop us smoking? Barmy! Smokers are heroes!

Mustn't smoke, mustn't drink, mustn't eat. I might as well be dead anyway. I am more likely to die of boredom. Mustn’t smoke, mustn’t drink, mustn’t eat. I might as well be dead anyway.

I, and most of my contempories are the children of pregnant smokers, my three healthy 8lb sons, now in their 20's, were smoked with ( one smoker, two nonsmokers). Our erstwhile wonderful local pub is on the point of administration as a result of smoking ban.. Hurrah ! we're all going to live forever and die of nothing !

The more of this we get, the less people will disbelieve those of us who have been pointing out how absurd the science behind second hand smoke is. It all comes from the same people, and the same funding. And it's all bullshit. :-) I love this stuff.

I can avoid smoking if I wish without any real effort, so I suggest that someone still claiming to be victimised by smoking is a professional righteous - they are desperate to be outraged / disadvantaged / it's for the CHEEEELDREN. They can't stop, though, can they? Their jobs depend on there being a problem, so there must be a problem...but they need to take a step back. Their latest claims: 1) third hand smoking is dangerous 2) e-cigs cause spontaneous heart-attacks in people near e-smokers (but not the e-smokers themselves!) Just make their cause look ridiculous. I hate smoking (have friends that smoke), but things have gone too far. ENOUGH I’m not a fan of smoking (in fact I have always hated it) BUT this is just bullshit.

Bouyed by their success, the liberal elite have moved on to alcohol and food. The real target is the destruction of the last haven of dissenting adults: the local. But anti-fagism is sooo last year.

The backlash against 'global warming' taxes is beginning so they have to have to have something else to replace it.
