Another Petition

Review the smoking ban...

I think this one is important (I have signed)... Even a non-smoker like me can see how unfair the smoking ban is - and the implications for other liberties.

I urge you to sign.

To quote Leg-Iron...

Quote
I think this petition will be ignored even if it gets a million signatures. Little Clegg's fake repeal website studiously ignored it. The Cameroid, the Clegg and Special Ed are no more capable of understanding this issue than an anencephalic prawn so unless the Brain Fairy visits, they will continue believing everything in the garden is smokefree.

However, I would urge everyone to sign it. Not because they might listen, there's no chance of that, but so that the next time we hear 'most smokers support the smoking ban' we can slap down the smug gits with actual figures.

Plus, there is a chance, the slimmest and farthest outside chance, that maybe someone in that Westminster bubble will notice something's not as popular as they have been led to believe. Stranger things have happened.

But not many.

Signed.

Side-note - I see the petition was started by Anthony Worrall Thompson, one of Mrs JOM's claim to fame is that she stood outside his kitchen smoking a fag with him

I have always thought that the worst thing about drowning was having to call 'help!' You must look such a fool. It's put me against drowning.

Less than 3,000 - a bit shite really...  noooo:

Mind you, they've happily ignored 100,000 real signatures from The Express so I don't suppose it makes much odds...
