Did it close or did it just do a U turn because it couldn't afford to stay open as a non-smoking establishment?
Surely the argument that there are loads of people just dying to go to the pub but don't want to put up with smoke is shot down in, um, smoke, by that pub moving from non-smoking to smoking?
If the majority of the population are non smokers who want to go to the pub but don't because of smokers, then that place should have been packed.
As for complaining that the nearest one now is 20 miles away, the nearest good restaurant (non-smoking of course), or cinema for that matter is about 20 miles away from me (1hr round trip) and I do it because it's my choice.

No, the comparison you are trying to make is rediculous, that one give more health issues than the other.
The comparison I'm making is that they both give health issues, but in both cases, you and I have the choice to expose ourselves to those risks or not.
