It was a worth while campaign well done.

As an ex smoker I would ban them. Cannot see that happening?

Well done

Talk about a nanny state!

next we want to ban smoking so many feet away from any doorway or open window, I felt insulted when my consultant inferred I should give up smoking first I never have had smoked in my life I had just braved the battle front of smokers so near the front door of the hospital and I told him that was why I smelt like a smoked kipper, it seems to me people diagnosed with COPD should be asked if they have or are smoking before they pass judgment.

Not what you're looking for?
