Apparently, England's smoking ban has caused more than 400,000 people to quit. Researchers say this could translate into 40,000 lives saved over the next 10 years.
Funny thing is, imagine how much tax the govt is losing on that, wont be liking that

Though..."100% compliance" is a farce.....barely any pubs round here have paid any attention to the ban.

Not that i care because 1)going out for a drink these days is just too expensive and 2)pubs have always been about going in to have a drink and a smoke
