Re: £10 for 20 cigarettes

Yeah to be honest i am sick of the constant attack on smoking while alcohol a far more destructive substance seems to get off scot free. Even doctors that subscribe to the passive smoking argument (and there are still many that don't) say very prolonged exsposure will cause problems and not in all cases.

Drinking on the other hand is starting to affect a lot more people in a lot more ways. Damage to property i live on a road that is used by many of the town's drunkards on their way home and car's and property are routinely damaged by these idiot's that think it is funny. Domestic abuse is fuelled by alcohol and is a rising problem. But here is the difference most people don't smoke so it's ok to hit that constantly but the majority enjoy a drink and so that is ok.

Before people start chiming in with the "i drink sensibly and i am a problem to no one" i was a sensible and considerate smoker but it didn't stop anyone taking away my right to have a night out and a coke and a fag in the comfort of a bar so why should i concede to you sensible drinker's when a few drinker's affect me negatively.

This is how i think the government want us to be divide and conquer and it is the only thing recently i have seen that is woirking out for them we are all so busy turning on each other for what we don't like we play right into their control freak hands clapping as we go.
