England goes smoke-free

[alan45]

Seems anything I say just gets dismissed so ill say nothing else on the matter, apart from i think its totally wrong!

I'll say nothing more on the matter!

i really dont see the point in saying anything else tbqh!

Ok thats fine by me I was trying to give you a chance to put your point of view forward

I was going to vote no but knew I'd get slated if I did

One person has given their opinion that they don't agree with it, and all have jumped on the bandwagon about it. Its no wonder no one has actually voted no.

Sorry, but thats just me.

I think there should have been another option, as I am still unsure about it. Neither yes or no. But like Ems was saying about the no's, I voted yes for that very reason. (I could have left it blank, but I like to answer polls )

Im not sure quite what you are saying, but every one is entitled to an opinion....I am not jumping on any bandwagon here....I have my own mind and opinion on the subject, thank you.

I have merely been responding to the comments of others, in a discussion forum.

What's happening to human rights is what I want to know?

Why should someone have the right to tell us what we should and shouldn't do?!

I'm a non smoker and I wont ever smoke as I think it is a dirty habbit, and from being around family who smoke I know what it actually does to your lungs and heart, but I also know how hard it is to stop.
I'm half and half as I think it's good that people aint allowed to smoke in places, as I went for a meal on sunday and it was great that their was no smoke. But to be honest in the first place I cant say I really noticed the smoke.
But im aslo againts it as a nurse was killed when she went out of the hospital for a fag, so her life was took just because she had to leave the building.
So I think it is good it has been banned but I think in work places people need a designated place to smoke. If not people who worrk night shifts and stuff like that are going on the street to smoke at night and god knows what could happen to them.

What's happening to human rights is what I want to know? Surely with freedom comes responsibility, and if that isnt the case, then the state has the right, I believe, to intervene for the good/protection of its people.

Why should someone have the right to tell us what we should and shouldn't do?! Maybe because smoking kills....?

I have been reading things on many other forums and alot of non, yes non, smokers think its not on either, that we should be dictated to I dont want to particularly live in a nanny state, but Im all for the quality of my life being improved.

This is the last comment I'll make on this thread, fine you want to smoke in a public place, and I wouldnt have so much of a problem with that, if the byproduct of smoking wasnt toxic, and thus could cause me serious harm.

I dont mind what people do in this world as long as it doesnt adversely affect others...

[SarahWakefield]

Well, imo...it should be the owners of pubs/restaurants etc who decide if they want there business a smoke or smoke free zone. Or there should be a smoking room and non smoking room.

Like you lot are saying why should we have to inhale your smoke, why should i have to freeze to enjoy a cigarette?!

Because your the one who wants to kill yourself, or damage yourself
Like I say I have no problems with smokers, but they should go outside or in their own room

[SarahWakefield]

Yes, well I hope in the summer time you wont be sat outside the pub with all the smokers enjoying the sun because you have got the pub to stay in!
