Cabinet clash derails smoking ban
I still have not yet seen any proposals as to how it will be implemented any better than the exisiting bans on taking Class A drugs in pubs or serving up food poisoning in restaurants are enforced. But that aside, it will be introduced eventually, I have no doubt about that.
I can't say I would want to go into a pub if I'm the only one not taking charlie.
Still, better than an incident I heard of the other day. One of Jimmy's friends went into the gents in a local pub and saw someone washing their syringe and needles in the handwash basin.
This particular pub has been reported many times for tolerating Class A consumption and dealing, but with no apparent consequences. It would be ironic if it tried to enforce a smoking ban; even more ironic if the authorities clamped down on adults smoking there whilst turning a blind eye to the drug dealing, including to minors.
But the British public want smoking to stop and, clearly don't want drug dealing to stop, so the powers-that-be have to prioritise.
shrug not my problem. There's always ways round it.
