Full ban in all public places? Good imo but then i guess any non smoker would see it as a good thing :rolleyes:

It's great news.

Can't wait for it to come into force....shame it probably won't be until next year.

Absolutely brilliant :smile:

I'm really sensitive to smoke, so always get sore eyes after a night out or whatever!

Smokers should have consideration for others and leave the room if they what a cigarette. About time this became the law!

I'm an asthmatic and go to a pub every day at lunch times, so I'm really happy about it!

(Possibly) A stupid question, does this ban mean people cant smoke when walking around the city centre etc? :confused:

Fair enough. I guess it would be a little difficult to enforce it otherwise lol!

Apparently you won't be able to smoke in bus stops, as they are classed as a public space!

Yay!

Thats great!!! Apparently, the ban has come into force but only for pubs and clubs

Are there any smokers that think it's a good idea? Or smokers in general, what do you think? Anyone with a view other than "it's rubbish because I won't be able to smoke"?

I think it's very good, but I would I'm a non-smoker. Whenever I try to sit in a restaurant with a barrel of depleated uranium and waft it everywhere, they don't always ask me to stop, so why should they let smokers inflict their airborne death on everyone?

I think it's brilliant. Next step: no smoking outside of your own home. Would cut down on the amount of butt-ends everywhere too!

I hope your kidding...

I am a smoker. I am all for banning it in enclosed public places. But anything more than that is enfringement on human rights. If its outside, we have a right to smoke.

There are FAR more things in the air we breathe that cause illness and death than second hand tobacco smoke.
