I was a heavy smoker for 20 years, and I still wish that I could go to a 'proper pub' for a fag and a pint, i only gave it up because I couldn't afford it anymore..but I digress.
I remember saying in the 90's (when the **** taking, as in 'we're taxing you more for you're smoking....for your own benefit started '....that before long, you'd get people breaking in to shops to pinch fags, and what do we see now? .....just this week, (and it started years ago), Asda in west end was broken in to, and they took everything from the tobacco kiosk.
I personally think there should be a tax on fat people..........what do you think?
