I have just spotted this article on the ban on smoking vote which on the surface seems like a? excellent plan, but what most people seem to have missed is the income the Government get from TAX on Cigerettes will probably drop significantly and need to be? replaced. Which will result in increased TAX somewhere else.
Where is all the money for the NHS to deal smoking related illness going to come from?
Dont get me wrong? I am not pro smoking, in fact? I have never smoked
but such a sweeping decision will only come back an bite us? ALL in pocket
i think it is imoral for the government to tax smokers so much and then put them out onto the streets to smoke.30%of people smoke,therefor 30%of bars and restuarants should allow smoking,leaving 70%of bars and restuarants 100%smoke free.Non smokers now have it all!
