I don't think it's a small thing at all when it affects other people. When it doesn't affect other people then I agree with you, it's no-one else's business but your own. But of course no-one has banned you from smoking in private where it doesn't affect others.

This should sort out the anomaly in the Arndale centre now where the "smoke free zone" is full of smoke wafting from the open cafe.

This clean air that you have a right to breathe WillowTheWisp.

Would that be the air polluted with vehicle exhaust fumes?

Talk about hypocrisy!

Pixie Do you drive a car? If so, when I walk down the street my air space is being filled with your exhaust fumes. And if you fly in an areoplane all the fiumes come down to earth and I have to breathe it in. Shall we ban the cars then and all flights. How about it .:mad: :mad:

The smoking ban isn’t in OPEN public spacespixie but in ENCLOSED public spaces. And that means you cannot object to someone lighting up next to you whilst you both wait for a bus unless it happens to be in an ENCLOSED bus shelter. To have it your way is to pass legislation without due process. Just exactly when were you empowered to pass laws for this country?

In any case, isn’t it the absolute height of hypocrisy to object to cigarette smoke from a bystander whilst waiting at a bus stop on the one hand but say nothing about the bus spewing out filthy and deadly exhaust fumes as it draws up and stops on the other? I hardly need mention the dozens of vehicles that slip past doing exactly the same whilst you wait for the bus to arrive.

Just where is this clean fresh air that you speak of? On the top of mountains perhaps and maybe at the two poles? But down here there is no such thing as fresh clean air. I wonder how many people are aware that the life giving oxygen content of a litre of air is some 3% less today than it was 50 years ago. In the States and Japan they now have oxygen cafes where patrons can have their coffee or whatever and a bottle of oxygen to breathe whilst they drink it.

What applies to the Coldstream Gaurds would apply to the other Guards units as the are required to wear them when required. Some squaddies might be happy without them. They could always make them of another material or is it that its unPC to have them?
