Ladies and Gents.
There is a survey from Swansea council that I would urge you all to complete - on whether to make Swansea a smoke free city.
Consider this - smokers have known for decades the dangers of smoking, yet have made a conscious decision to take up the habit at the cost of everyone around them - forced to share their death fumes. Non-smokers can't even eat outside on sunny days with their families, or walk outside through a doorway without getting a facefull of fumes from selfish and anti-social smokers who hang around in gangs without a consideration for people having to walk between them to exit the building.
Smoking is a habit that rightfully deserves to be stamped out. If creating a nanny-state policy against smoking is needed to protect the health of others, who have taken the decision not to indulge in cancer development and lung destruction, then so be it.
So, you'll find the link for the survey below.

Just because there is a problem with obesity - doesn't give a green light for saying smoking is ok. People need to take responsibility for themselves and not rely on the state to come to the rescue, time after time. |  |

Does this include vaping as well? I'm sure the clouds of VG (vegetable glycerin)/PG (propylene glycol) are 100% safer than the 2000-3000 known toxic chemicals found in cigarettes. |  |

I looked at the survey and when I saw that they had included e cigarettes, I went back and filled the whole thing in, as it is obvious that this has nothing to do with health and everything to do with ridiculous gesture politics.
Are they also going to ban asthma inhalers which use the same substances? | | | |

Asthma inhalers save lives though. Any formof smoking makes one look like a complete cock. |  |

Big tobacco are crushing vaping by forcing e-juice companies to comply to many regulations and they have to pay £1000's for medical testing of their products. A safer alternative to smoking and probably the most successful quitting mechanism and they are trying to ban it. Ludicrous! | |

So does vaping. No cancer causing chemicals, no foul smelling clothes and it doesn't affect others around you. No nicotine in some juices either. Why are people trying to ban it when it is effectively saving lives by getting people off smoking and onto e-cigs which in time they will quit totally in the end. | |

Still makes one look like a complete and utter cock.
In fact if it saves lives we should all take it up. [Post edited 11 Oct 2015 20:38]

Maybe so but not a foul smelling one or an inconsiderate one I guess plus it's saving and prolonging lives. | |

I doubt you'd find one in argos but I'm told the strawberry milkshake e-juice is nice and won't bother people leaving pubs and restaurants. | |

Those vapour things are more cock-ish than real smoking though, it's like drinking decaffinated coffee. What's the point? |  |

To be fair, so does the wearing of football shirts over the age of about 14 and they aren't banned  |

It's a way of satisfying the nicotine addiction without having all the harmful stuff at the same time. It's almost the total opposite of decaffeinated coffee, which has the "addictive" element removed. |  |

When we meet one day I will rugby tackle you to the floor, straddle you (you'll like that bit) then light up a cigarette and blow my smoke up your nose until you're choking. |  | | |
