never again

I thought I was dreaming this morning when I spotted the following, unbelievable, headline in the Evening Post.

'Let us smoke in pubs again'.

This is ridiculous. Life should be lived moving forwards, not backwards. The smoking ban in workplaces is there to protect employees from secondhand smoke. IT WILL ALWAYS BE THERE. From now the war against this old man's habit should be stepped up, with smoking banned in all open spaces, and within 5 years completely. It is an embarrassment that a few old men still do this, I suppose they've simply given up on life. But should a tiny minority ever have the  right to force this on others? Of course not.

Pubs have improved no end since the ban. It seems incredible now that it had ever been allowed. The pubs are now full of decent people, families, teenagers etc. Okay, we still have to (for a few more years) have to run the gauntlet of a few elderly losers in the pub entrance showing the whiole world how uncool and fucking stupid they are, but once in a pub I'd challenge anyone to say that it's not 1000% better than the old days.

So a simple message to all smokers - FUCK OFF AND DIE!!!!!!

nearly sorted ...

LOSERS' GALLERY!

So a few loser smokers are going to challenge the English smoking ban are they? And on the grounds of human rights! What about the rights of the 80% who DON'T smoke, who think all smokers are loser scum and are still getting off light? Just get used to it.

Publicans must be jumping with joy at the latest forecasts, that pub visits will rocket once the smell of stale tobacco has gone, and only 3% of smokers (or under 1% of pub-goers) have said they'll stop going to pubs. Good riddance. No doubt they'll sit at home jacking up, watching Deal or No Deal and decrying the loss of pounds, shillings and pence, foxhunting and capital punishment for witches.

And smokers, guess what? This is only the START. Soon you'll be banned from smoking in cars, on the street and at home. We should follow Bhutan's example and ban smoking and the sale of the drug tobacco entirely.

oh dear .... hippies of the week

A pub in Cornwall, 'England', has decided that the best way to keep its disgusting clientele - 99% of whom are smokers - is to secede from the UK and join Peru. Well they're welcome to you! Perhaps they'll sponsor all your customers to have 'loser' tattooed across their faces? Haven't the idiot landlords realised that 99% of their customers are smokers because they only have one customer - and he smokes 'cos he thinks he's still living in Wigan, 1928. Wait until 1 July, the haze will clear, the coughing will stop, old Sid will pop his clogs (literally) and REAL people, not loser tossers, will start using their pub ...



Or perhaps they can just all fuck off to Peru where they'll be welcomed with open arms? The picture above is of the king and queen of Peru enjoying a 'fag'.

wallop!

So the socialist scumbags who use mobile phones whilst driving are going to get a few points on their license and have to fork out £60 of their unearned income from today. There's been a little bleating as expected from these deadbeats but the police seem to actually be enforcing it. I always make an obscene gesture when passing these morons in their 2CVs and lorries, no doubt as they discuss revolution and chardonnay on their Nokias.

They'll be whingeing even more from July 1st when they can't ruin decent people's lives and meals by smoking in public. A few years ago we could have told 'em to 'sod off back to Russia' but the commies have vanished there too!

Now for a TOTAL ban on smoking and an automatic lifetime driving ban for using mobile phones in cars. These buggers could also afford to pay £1000 fines ...

one more nail in the coffin for the uncool

Oh dear, what a shame. This terminally uncool government does something sensible at last - raises the age of smoking from an amazing 16 to 18, though not until October 1. Coupled with the ban on smoking in workplaces from July 1 this should finish off this idiot uncool habit at last - though it would perhaps be best if cigarette sales were banned entirely.

It's not illiberal to get rid of this idiocy, any more than it's illiberal to ban murder or rape.

Basically smoking is the most uncool thing of all - worse than kipper ties, the macarena or christianity. Perhaps public humiliation of the old folk that still do it would be a good way forward, chucking buckets of ice cold water over them when you catch them lurking in their phlegm-filled council flats coughing unhygienically. I'd be up for it.

So what drives 9% of kids to smoke? Irony, idiocy, lack of self-respect or is it just the uncool lefty geeky ones who also play the harmonica, knit their own tank tops and think David Essex has something relevant to say?
