TOT Smoking Ban 2007
Now before you all flame me, I'm not a smoker and never have been, but I
find this unbelievable! From the middle of this year, there will be a total ban on smoking in public places. No pubs or clubs can even have a smoking room for people who fancy a fag! The only place to be allowed such a smokers room is, guess where? The house of commons !!!! |

The only place to be allowed such a smokers room is, guess where? The house of commons !!!! Do you have a source for this? It is possible that part of the Palace of Westminster will be excempt because it is a residence. Googling a bit I find that The Palace of Westminster is exempt because it is a royal palace. However this report from The Observer says that there will be a ban on smoking in parliament. Sunday December 24, 2006 The Observer Smoking ban extends to 'royal' Commons MPs have lost their battle to stop next year's ban on smoking in England affecting the House of Commons. Because the precincts of parliament are technically a royal palace, it is exempt from the law that will see smoking outlawed in pubs, restaurants and other public places from next July. The Commons administration committee, a group of MPs who oversee decisions about the running of Westminster, concluded last year that it should set an example by voluntarily adopting the ban, but four of its members - three Tories and one Labour - formally objected, leaving the final decision to a commission run by the Speaker of the Commons Michael Martin. However, it is shortly expected to announce that the ban will be introduced throughout parliament, including in MPs' private offices. Tory backbencher Derek Conway had opposed the parliamentary ban, alongside Tory committee members Greg Knight and Andrew Robathan and Labour's Brian Donohoe. 'Where staff are involved it has to be banned, but in individual offices I think it should be a matter for MPs, not for the nanny state,' he said. 'I shall lean out of my window overlooking the Thames and puff away.' -- Phil Cook looking north over the park to the "Westminster Gasworks" |

Perhaps you should start up another TOT thread about whether or not drinking should be banned. This one is about smoking. Are you trying to imply that, because you believe drinking has worse effects, the smoking ban shouldn't be implemented? Also, since you're dragging drink into it, it's worth pointing out that it is already illegal to drink to the point where other members of the public become adversely affected. The new law will only bring smoking into line with this. Cheers, Colin. |

wrote as does the smell from the toilets. If you can smell the toilets consider how much care that the publican gives to other hygiene matters. Is that same bit of rag used to clean the ash trays, to make the beer pumps sparkle and to shine the sinks and toilet bowls?
