    People seem to be consistently in favour of banning anything that they don’t personally partake in.

    If that’s your takeaway then you’re an idiot. People can smoke all they like, 50 packs a day if you want. Go for it.

    But not near me. In your own house.

      Yes in your own house, but not in your garden or with your windows open, because that’s too close to me!

      You sound ridiculous.

        Where are you getting this from? There’s a big difference between in a beer garden full of people and in your own garden.

        If I can smell it it’s too close to me. You explain to me how it is ridiculous to demand people respect social boundaries Unless of course you’re a person who believes they should be allowed to do whatever the hell they want because they feel like it, in which case you can go walk off a short pier.

        Please do better
