Couldn’t agree more. It’s just a shame that the UK has a long proud tradition of making big problems out of smaller problems.

As someone who hates smoking, never enjoyed it, it’s a terrible health choice etc. Let people do what they want.

I’m more than content with smoking being banned in various public areas. Do what you want as long as it’s not harming anyone else.

There will always be unhealthy choices, once smoking is banned and smoking disappears into history, cured meat will be top dog, then ultra-processed food or something.

As a Brit, Champion freedom for a change.

Eh, to replace it with their own slow creep to authoritarianism.

As a Brit, we’re on the same slippery slope as the USA, we’re just slower to innovate.
