thats what the law states but whos going to enforce it if the landlord choses to ignore it to make a living.
there are 70000 liceinsed pubs and clubs in the uk (that doesnt includ restaurants) the police claim they cant deal with current crime with there numbers so how on earth are they going to police 70000 outlets.
for me the eaiset answer would have been ban it in food establishment and for pubs and clubs let them deciede.
if they go non smoking they can stand and fall by there trade same for those that chose to be smoking outlets.
as long as staff and customer know they can chose, and if as a result all bars become non smoking then fair enough thats what people have choosen

its classic legislation from people who havent ever run a pub or use them regularly.
i wonder if the 13 bars in the house of commons will be all non smoking?

because even though i believe that you should be able to smoke if you want to, you have to take the responsability and remember always that your using something that could harm another and potentially kill another.

So do cars and drink but i dont see them been banned. I believe it should be the landlords and the public who chose. If a pub wants to be none smoking thats fine and people can chose to use it. If its smoking you can chose to use it. I see no reason why the public cant make there own chose in the matter

because in the long term its more serious and dangerous than alcohol, in the short term its more uncomfortable for others than alcohol. alcohol will not hurt others around you as long as you control how much you have, which is yours and the sellers responsability.
the people did choose, and most, by a lot, said they wanted a ban.
