Looking forward to the NHS actually having time for people that are ill through no fault of their own! Hell, waiting lists may fall, you never know! !shocked!

I've never smoked, but i've paid plenty of tax to keep other people alive that have smoked!

Yep we've had this before. I think a years worth of cancer treatment is about the same cost as 20 years pension!

If the government could save money by us dying earlier, it seems a silly law, and a silly waste of money to produce anti-smoking campaigns.

I think the overall cost of treatment outweighs the extra taxes, and the better treatment we produce the more expensive it usually gets, so in 20 years the costs will soar compared to taxes gained.

That's my take on it anyway.

Well, now you have a point. I never said Blair was more 'orgasmic' than Mrs T now did I? !laugh!

And you wonder why some smokers are puritanical. Decades of having someone else's filthy smoke blown into their faces will do it every time.
