Hey, I willingly go in pubs where people smoke - I just think it's nice, since it has been proven that smoking not only kills smokers, but also kills non-smokers, that public places (including pubs) should be non-smoking; Just because I disagree with you does not make me "sanctimonious" or "have my head up my ****" - it just means I disagree with you.

Please explain why not?
Because if you go outside for a quick fag, only you are inhaling the noxious poisonous fumes - a non-smoker going outside for a quick gasp of fresh air isn't going to clear all the poison out of his lungs in two minutes.


No - you can advertise a job, stating that if you were to apply, you would need to bear in mind it was in an establishment that allowed smoking. Then the choice is yours.
So an unemployed person has to choose between health and employment - nice!
