Sorry to all the smokers here but I think Kent is right… I have a theory I can tell a smoker simply by looking at them… and that look kicks in fairly young too. My mother was a smoker and she died of lung cancer not a nice death.
My original post on this thread though was really about personal freedom and government over legislation. I still think it should be freedom of choice what we do … if we smoke or not should be a personal choice. It annoys me that government spend time and money on policies limiting personal freedom whilst at the same time we have massive economic problems and our young people dont have jobs.
still missing the point mrs t
it wasnt the government that brought this up
it was a suggestion from the general medical council :roll:A suggestion by a group of doctors made because of research commissioned either via central government or through the NHS…. if the government accept the findings and recommendations of this research the next step will be the formulation of policy probably done by DH or the Home Office. Also who do you think funds the GMC?

If smoking is as bad and as dangerous to others as the government say, Shouldn’t it be an all out ban?
Of course we all know why that will never happen.
Too much revenue is being gleaned from cigarette taxes.
Just enough to cover mps expenses. :evil:Non smoker by the way! before I get jumped on..but think the government is taking away enough of our rights, surely we should be able to do as we want in our own private spaces?
I agree AG

While you scream at your woman, there’s a man wishing he could whisper in her ear. While you humiliate, offend, and insult her, there’s a man flirting with her & reminding her how beautiful she is. While you hurt her, there’s a man wishing he could take her pain away. While you make her cry, there’s a man stealing smiles from her…
Wonders where this man is? :D

Yes.
We can lie by omission
We can lie by deed

17 November, 2011 at 10:51 am #480932The thing is though Lucy.. people do its human nature. We trust people also just by posting on these boards we give clues about who we are where we live our interests etc etc…I still think about Claudia Lawrence the girl from York who disappeared and was a chat room regular.. heaven knows what happened to her.
Its so important to have the site properly run… Not sure what the answer is… too much regulation would not be good either… I chat rarely because I dislike the fights there but Im in the minority so maybe the site has it right?.. who knows :?
