If you have kids you make the sacrifice on where to go and what to do, not the kids. Get yourself down the soft play centre and leave the pubs kid free. Well you say that but a lot of hotels don't allow you to smoke & over hear If you rent certain apartments your not allowed to smoke in them. Which is fair enough as it's indoors. I wouldn't want to be the next person to occupy a hotel room after a smoker has either. The owner of a rental property can put whatever stipulations on it they like as far as I'm concerned. So long as you know before you agree to rent it. Optimistic as ever

It is 100% right. A ban in all public places is long past time. Smoking infringes on the right to clean air for the vast majority who don;t smoke. It is bad enough having to breath in particulates from the other scourge of health, diesel, without nicotine as well. I would ban all smoking other than in the home immediately.

Now let me see that I have got this right. You go to the garden of a pub and light up a cigarette and you now find yourself breaking the law and getting fined. You intimidate and harass truck drivers, cause damage to vehicles and property, smuggle yourself across international borders and you get rewarded for it! What a country we live in. I hate smoking but for goodness sake we must have some bastions of working class culture left. Football is already on the way to being a middle class prawn sandwich brigade sport. Pubs that have been around for hundreds of years and are part of our country’s social fabric are finding it hard enough to survive as it is without yet another deterrent to put people off coming.

Talk about a nanny state. Exactly Tom. A lot of pubs have gone out of business since the smoking ban, that's no coincidence. I also agree with the other thing you say about threatening truck drivers and getting a free house for it.
