The limits of the smoking ban are laid down by Parliament ("...within 5 meters of any entrance ...enclosed working space") and public bodies (including hospitals) are not able to extend that in the same way that they cannot impose 30mph speed limts anywhere they fancy although some do until taken to court by a driver who knows his stuff.<br /><br />Anyone who gets harrassed by a Blackpool CPSO can safely ignore him.bannedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02406037760273820029noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8377446.post-69347284634628923012012-09-14T12:35:03.336+01:002012-09-14T12:35:03.336+01:00I suspect because the control freaks have a very c...I suspect because the control freaks have a very clever response to silence any critics.......If someone said they don't accept the arguments, Nanny will say something along the lines of, "So you're in favour of harming children."<br /><br />We see this style of response all the time now.....It is very common in relation to so called child protection, national security, race relations, 'elf'n'safety etc. It is seen almost daily on the state's broadcaster, Al Ja-Beeba.<br /><br />We are sleep walking into something that's a cross between the old USSR and Nazi Germany.<br /><br />Won't someone think of the adults!Tonk.noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8377446.post-21921004294111972922012-09-14T11:34:43.900+01:002012-09-14T11:34:43.900+01:00I don’t understand it.
