They may probably do just that.

What they managed to do is make smoking socially unacceptable. So that wider society don't care how hard you hit the smoker, and not only have they gone after the smoker in public areas but they are now going after him in his own home.

It is quite possible, with the right campaign, to try and make drinking, or certainly drinking to excess, socially unacceptable too.

So I don't know where it will end.

I do know one thing, prices will go up....all the time
