The antismoking lobby has succeeded in banning smoking in public places and, though our bit of the world may be a slightly healthier place to live in, unemployment from the resulting closure of bars and clubs due to the refusal of the EU to consider separate smoking areas and the low cost of drinks in supermarkets just adds to our general economic woes.
Now the BMA wants a total ban on alcohol advertising and an increase in drinks prices. The impact on this on a variety of industries and occupations could be extremely serious indeed.
Whatever happened to the word ‘choice’ in the vocabulary of those in responsible positions, or is it just me that thinks it was replaced with the word ‘forbidden’?
Stop ‘nannying’ us!
