I wonder if the MP who called for a smoking ban has looked at the damage it has done to the pubs and clubs.

It just cannot be right, people having to stand outside to smoke.

How many pubs and clubs have closed through the bans in Ireland, Wales, Scotland and England? The number of jobs lost must be terrific.

Taxes the Government gets from pubs and clubs must be looked at.

Why not revoke the decision? Let people smoke in pubs and clubs, but not restaurants and eating places.

I am a non-smoker, but it doesn't bother me if people smoke.
