A 1st for me; I'm actually agreeing with Thick Lizzie: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-13314881/Liz-Truss-government-nannying-cigarettes-ban-Rishi-Sunak-Tory.html

Although, I do see the 'protect people from themselves' side of the arguement......

Worse than that, Lex. I agree with Bozo! It's time to stop unnecessary State interference in our lives. This is yet another of Sunk's [SIC] silly little pet projects.

There'll be plenty of ways to get round this stupid, nannying law.

Pishy Sunak is pathetic focusing on banning smoking, when there are far more serious issues confronting this country that need addressing.

When I was at school in the 50's kids were getting hold of cigarettes and smoking behind the bike shed, same goes for today, I have seen kids walking home from school sharing a fag . And worse still drug dealing. Why doesn't weak Pishy do something about that!


I am not a smoker, when I worked on the wards, some stressed patients were allowed to go for a fag , especially pregnant women, believe it or not the hospital back then had a smoking room. But nowadays that has been banned, which then resulted in patients having to go out the front for a fag, and then all the cigarette buts lying around on the ground. Yes, smoking is a problem, but folks can't be forced to stop just like that , it's not easy. They need a fag to calm their nerves at times.
I am a non smoker myself, I'm glad I never started, never had one in my life.

Did I hear that this has been dropped due to parliament not having time to pass the Bill due to the election?

Correct, Lex. It ain't going to happen, just like the Rwanda flights and just like National Service. Sunk's lost every last scrap of credibility he almost had.

A lot of his 'policies' do seem to be aimed at the Reactionary Elderly types that would vote Conservative (but mabey eying the Reform Party up).

Really not on, is it? People are adults and should be able to make their own decisions. Starmer is rapidly turning in a dic(k)tator

I've discussed the topic with several people since this was announced, and the unanimous consensus is it'll just cause more damage to the hospility industry.

But, Starmfuher would like to kill the hospitality industry because that is where the rebels have historically met and plotted. He doesn't want any of that naughtiness!

It also starts to align the country with Muslim values as regards alcohol!

Nanny Starmer's Bill has got through Parliament. Just the formality of Royal ascent: https://rugbyobserver.co.uk/news/uk-tob ... ews-61191/
