'Fags' not banned, merely the smoking of them in public places. Pub trade not dead, just not as healthy as it was but how much of that is down to the restrictions on smoking rather than ridiculous pricing? Apart from the fact that 'plastic glasses' don't exist, the drinking vessels In question have been about for years and are fairly common place - they're not being mandated, nor are glasses being banned. Football shirts are also nothing new, they are also not being banned. As for taking your shoes off before entering a pub, surely that would be unhygenic and potentially injurous to your health?

All in all a well balanced, constructed, and thought out post, that takes full account of the actual facts and doesn't sensationalise Arthur . . . Well done
