says who?
bacause, we enjoy it, just like you enjoy wearing your mums high heels and knickers.
You say "a question to all smokers?" why the ? mark because that is not in itself a question.
In fact there is no question.
I would rather be a smoker than be ignorant.
.
Well aren't you just the wise old man of the woods!
How simplistic is your little mind,? addiction needs professional handling, not intolerant rants from crackpots
I would rather have twenty smokers walking past my house than 20 drunks.why not ban the drink...yet to see a smoker kill someone whilst over the smoking limit.or assault someone because he has smoked too much.there are lots of things the Govt. could ban...they started with Fox hunting, smoking, then drinking, then anything enjoyable.
I agree, smoking is very gh3y but I still do it
We are not social lepers thanks very much, we are a minority group that has been discriminated against and our freedom of choice is being eroded.
As for saving cash, I earn enough to not have to worry about £25 a week.
Smoking is MORE addictive than HEROIN.
Easy for non-smokers to say quit .It's MORE difficult than quitting heroin! Food for thought.Unless you've been there, Don't knock us.There is NO QUICK fix to quitting.
yes you are right what you say.but does this question go to people who drink alcohol think how much they would save.
I would prefer to have smokers than drunks wandering around in public places. After all, many smokers are polite smokers and stay away from public places anyway. It's only really pubs and clubs!
But I am an ex-smoker and I have quit as my main smoking area was in the pubs as a social enjoyment!
I'm a non-smoker and I think it's just not that easy to quit. It assume it would be like being addicted to drugs and alcohol. Having said that though my Mom quit "cold turkey" after many years of smoking and soon after she developed all sorts of problems. I think her body was so used to being on nicotine that when she came off she got all sorts of problems. I would advise to quit but do it properly. Go through the proper channels.
If they wanna smoke let them, if they stop the goverment will not get the extra cash they are getting from the somkers and us none smokers will end up paying the goverment what the smokers do now. In theroy they are paying for their own nhs treatment cause this money must come from Goverment.
So keep on smoking people !!!
u were never a smoker...it not that easy 2 give up.I did but still want a cig everyday and I gave up almost 2 years ago
An 'extra' holiday, I like it.
we smoke because we have the choice to smoke. and we like it. just wait until they ban alcohol or cars!
This isnt a question, this is a lecture.
I am not a smoker and welcome the ban since it now means that I dont have to suffer the smoke of others however I dont feel that I have the right to dictate to others how they live their lives when it doesnt affect me.
The government isn't trying to do you a favour! If we all gave up smoking, where do you think the lost tax revenue burden would fall? On you and the other 66% of people who don't smoke! Taxation derived from smoking pays for the NHS three times over. The next point is if we all stopped, a fair percentage would live longer, putting an extra burden on the NHS, as we all become geriatric and infirm, and the cost of providing longer pensions would increase dramatically.
Not as straight forward as you might think is it?

We all knew smoking bad to health. We knew it will harm our families. We knew quit smoking can saved us a lot, a lot of $$$. We knew all this but we still doing it.
Yeah, those smokers already addicted to it but can we those non-smokers beg them, when they want to com**t su*c*de, can they count us out ?
And please the government authorities, D O N ' T ban here and there, those smokers have no place to smoke already. Now seem everywhere is their smoking points already.
Let them smoke in the pub, at least !
Looks like you have all the excuses you could ever want there!
Ignorance really is bliss...
(A non smoker)
I'm a non-smoker - excuse me, but who the hell are you to lord it over smokers like this?! Yes ok, there is smoking ban in place (for over a year where I am in Scotland) and we all know why - do you think your attitude is achieving anything?
Firstly - smokers ARE welcome in any public building, it's just that they can't smoke there. They are still entitled to the same public rights as anyone else, and to call them social lepers is a bit much.
Secondly - you ask "why don't you just quit?" Well if it was that easy, maybe they already would have. It's an addiction, which makes it very difficult to "just quit". I'm not a smoker and even I can understand that.
Maybe you should spend your time looking at your own faults before getting on your high horse about other peoples.
mind u'r own business
do you think we care?
the government have made the situation worse. walk through any town centre. how many people are standing ouside bars having a smoke? how many of them bars are on a public street? with bus stops outside?
it looks terrible. the people at the bus stop now have to breathe the smoke while waiting for the bus. can the public get past the people on the street?
y are u askin a question that has been asked many times in the past few days?
yes we could all save £1250 a year ..but why do you drive a Subaru instead of a lada. eat hovis bread instead of tesco.buy a villa instead of a flat ..because we enjoy it. and with that extra holiday everyone will have think about all the extra pollution getting there ,,whether by plane or car...also is it not a fact that..people who are giving up smoking put on weight.not to healthy either......did you know that one of the buildings you are allowed to smoke in is THE HOUSE OF PARLIAMENT
Garbage! If the Government wanted to do a favor they would BAN the sale of ciggs and put the industry out of business BUT then they would not be the recipient of all those billions in taxes. Nonsense! Just like my Fathers oncologist when he wrote me a letter after the death of my Father saying he wishes they could find a cure for that terrible disease, and what, him no longer have a job??
Get real. They aren't doing a favor.
just quit have lovely holiday wen you give up
Actually ... i smoke 50 grammes of tobacco a week ... it works out at just over £250 if i buy my tobacco in Belgium where my family lives.
More likely i'll bring back about 30 packets on a yearly basis. That will cost me just under £150. And even buying the reminder at UK rip off prices of £10.00 /50 grammes gets me just over a yearly expenditure of £500.00. Not much of a holiday there.
I'm teatotal, is where i save my cash really :-)
I don't drive, don't drink, don't go on holidays.
I choose to smoke though because I WANT to.
If I'm smoking when I'm on my own then how is that effecting other people?
with all the tax that is put on fags is it in the intrest of the government for all to give up.. if we did what would be the new tax call to cover the lost in tobacco sales
