smoking ban stinks
Can't smoke won't vote petition

Just 7,500 smoking voters can wipe out Labour's Commons majority
Charles Clarke releases 'doomsday list' of Labour MPs at risk
Peter Thurgood 25th March 2008

A former cabinet minister has circulated a "doomsday list" of Labour MPs at risk of losing their seats if fewer than 7,500 voters switch sides.
Charles Clarke, the former home secretary, warns that because of boundary changes the party needs to lose only 24 seats, predominantly in London and the southeast, to be stripped of its overall majority.
This will happen if just 7,417 people in the 24 seats who voted Labour at the last election vote next time for the party that came second.
Clarke points out that a disproportionate number of these marginals are in north Kent and Essex, prompting MPs to dub the next election the Battle for Bluewater after the giant shopping centre near Dartford.
In most of the seats, the Tory party is the main challenger.
See full article here:
http://extras.timesonline.co.uk/doomsdaymemo.pdf
The Government say that there are approximately 15 million smokers in the UK. I think this is a very low estimate, which in reality is something more like 20 to 25 million.
Nevertheless, whatever the figure, it is still a substantial number of people, all of whom have the right to vote.
Imagine what would happen if all those smokers stood together as a political force, and demanded rights for smokers. Even the lowest figure, of just 15 million, could decide the outcome of the next General Election.
As we all know, smokers have had all their human rights taken away from them, and have been victimised by this Government. In their manifesto, New Labour declared that they were considering a ban on smoking in bars or pubs where food was sold, but they were adamant that a total ban in all indoor public places, was out of the question.
New Labour's record on broken promises is however, only too well known, and as we all now know, this promise was not only broken, but enhanced upon, until there is hardly any place left for a person to smoke. The law, as it stands, states that indoor public places are out of bounds to smokers, but how they define "public" is another thing. How on earth can a "private" club, be classed as public?

On Thursday 1st May 2008, we will be given the chance to vote in the Local Elections, as well as the London Mayoral election.
This will be the "smokers" chance to show this Government, our local Council, and our London Mayor, exactly what we think of them.
We need to make our voice heard now, louder and clearer than ever. The party who offers to amend the smoking ban, and allow both smoking and non smoking establishments to prosper, side by side, will get our vote.
There are just five weeks to go until polling day. All smokers and smoking rights campaign groups, need to start their own individual campaigns immediately. We need to write to our local MPs, to text them, to email them, to petition them, to speak to them personally, if possible.
The message must be got across. NO SMOKE - NO VOTE, NO SMOKE - NO VOTE, NO SMOKE - NO VOTE, NO SMOKE - NO VOTE.

   The Smoking Ban Stinks's Blurbs
About me:
Inn The Cold

Since the UK smoking ban was introduced,1000 pubs have closed.

Pubs that were in trouble before the smoking ban have long since closed their doors. The pubs closing now were profitable before the smoking ban-50 a week are now closing. (BII and the publican)
The Daily Mirror report 600000 people have stopped going to bingo halls,as many as 50% will close in the next two years.
Every day,the local news feeds are full of pub closures and the economic and social effect this is having-our National press ignores this and claims the smoking ban is a success.
14 million smokers have been forced outdoors in all weathers-landlords have been given no choice as to how to run their own business.
Many European bans have exemptions for smaller bars who don't serve food,many Countries allow indor smoking rooms,away from the bar area-this middle ground would save many of our pubs closing,save jobs and keep our pub heritage alive.
Inn The Cold is dedicated to campaigning to save our pubs-to lobby for amendments to the smoking ban that is fair to smokers,non smokers and business owners
We plan a series of meetings,gigs and events over the nexy 18 months-help us to save our pubs
SAVE OUR PUBS



WE DON'T SUPPORT SMOKING,WE SUPPORT FREEDOM
Will say this early,so you don't waste your time-we support the rights of smokers and non smokers,and seperate indoor rooms with ventilation and air con. will do this. I would prefer everyone to mix freely but cannot condone sending smokers outdoors,in all weathers when the Government has deemed smoking legal for the purpose of tax collection.
Smokers should protected from the elements,business owners shoid be allowed free choice and provision should be made for non smokers to enjoy their evening/work/ smoke free if they so wish.

THE NANNY STATE-WHATS NEXT TO BE BANNED OR TAXED?-ANOTHER LOSS OF FREEDOM
I'm Mark and just want to do a bit more than gripe about the smoking ban-i may not change a damn thing BUT at least I can say I tried
With my wife Karen,daughter Tasha and close friends Kev & Dawn,we set up smoking ban stinks
Bought some car stickers,had a Leicester Mercury interview,Live Radio Leicester Interview,and a BBC East Midlands news interview.Not alot to shout about,but were having a go-this isn't just about smoking,its about freedom of choice for all
The UK Smoking ban breaches human rights for smokers and for business's
The European bans allow exemptions for small bars and private clubs and indoor smoking rooms
It is estimated that as many as 5000 pubs could close in the first year of the ban.
Keep on smoking,drinking,rocking and laughing while its still a free world! What do we want?
Smoking allowed in small pubs with no gardens
Indoor smoking rooms in pubs
Landlords to have the choice if they want to be smoking or non smoking

If we take the dangers of SHS with a pinch of salt then we can remember when smoking was fun or even sexy-its just a spin really,before the UK smoking ban,smokers were in the decline but not fast enough for the health facists-but by bringing in a ban on smoking in public places,could they have encouraged smoking to suddenly be cool again? To be sexy? To be attractive to the rebel within us all? Hey,they could have actually generated a new generation of smokers by banning it.
We do not encourage smoking or advise anyone taking the habbit up-but we want you to be aware that for the last two decades they have used spin to make smoking foul and smelly and a danger to health,when for generations it was considered cool and sexy and maybe,just maybe,a the ban will make it cool and sexy again?
Dave West,Hamish "guy fawkes" Howitt,Tony Blows,Nick Hogan,freedom 2 choose ,in fact anyone who opposes this draconian ban.

“...I have something to tell you
non-smokers that I know for a fact that you don't know, and I feel it's
my duty to pass on information at all times. Ready?. . . . Non-smokers
die every day . . . Enjoy your evening. See, I know that you entertain
this eternal life fantasy because you've chosen not to smoke, but let
me be the 1st to POP that bubble and bring you hurling back to reality
. . . You're dead too....”
