I hate smokers, they have no care about anyone else or anything other than themselves.

 

Maybe they should start selling ciggies indiviually. 1 ciggie = £3. Instead of them coming in packs they should all come in a box from the supplier and then they are sold indiviually! Problem solved!

 

Ha, you clearly don't remember back when cigarettes were sold as 'singles'. The reason they were banned? Kids could go and buy one ro two cigarettes which their pocket change.

 

Now they have to force the dinner money out of the weaker kids all day at school to be able to afford a 10 pack.

 

Mind you I detect a hint of irony about your post...I hope that's the case anyway.

Oh I used to, they used to be 25p for a L&B then they went up to 30p <_< Ohh those was the days. ^_^

I wonder if they'll have permit-free booths in Parliament for any MP's who don't fancy paying the permit charge after enforcing it on everyone else? :rolleyes:

I doubt it.

Forms for licences, processing of forms for licences, administration, entering all the details of everyone who has a licence on a national database, software to link the database with the police so they can do instant checks

 

Am sure there is more

 

At least a couple more rainforests will have to be chopped down to provide paper for all these civil servants

 

From the government's pov they'd rather chop down more trees than have smokers clogging up the NHS system.

It is more common now that when trees are cut down, new ones are planted. If it keeps people from having to go hospital then its worth it, especially with more immigrants coming in.

 

I suppose you could then argue that the less trees there are, the less CO2 being taken from that atmosphere and replaced with fresh oxygen :lol:

But shouldn't the government be taking fags of kids, permit or no permit?

 

No its more of the police force's job.

Its harder to just take fags off kids when they have no ID on them. At least this way their age can be proven on the spot.
