Government to consider banning smoking in pub gardens etc..

Indeed, but after the announcement of the winter fuel allowance being cut for 10M pensioners and now this, one has to wonder who’s advising him on these policies, when there’s far far bigger issues to deal with.
He clearly doesn’t care one jot about who he’s upsetting.

Make me chuckle..
God only knows what’s next?
1 Greggs steak slice a week, ban takeaways after 6pm, beer at £20 a pint?
Or..
So the poorly managed and overworked NHS are going to work places to stop people actually working to tell the staff they’re fat.
Kier Stalin is either a top (two) tier troll or he’s drunk on power.

Cyclists and vegans, probably.
Yup, but imagine the trouble that could be caused by an employer suggesting to an employee that they’re too porky or that their lifestyle isn’t up to scratch.
It’s an absolute minefield.
Still it’d keep HR busy.
Indeed, it’s especially galling when the kids of these land whales resemble beach balls with legs.
At what point do the parents start to notice that ramming junk food down their kids throats maybe isn’t the greatest of ideas? Or maybe they’re just too dumb to care.

Same here, although it turned out they were finding all kinds of problems that didn’t exist so they could refer us for further check ups at great expense to the company.
It got so bad that a few of us were refused to go back into the workshop until we’d had the check ups done, and it turned out this was happening across the whole network of dealerships.
They were sacked off and a new company was bought in, and surprise surprise no one after further checks were found out to have these problems.
Clearly you haven’t met my ex

What an absolute load of drivel.
My good god, did you even read that before posting it?
I kinda get what you're saying, but to word it like you have is just utterly laughable and completely ridiculous.
It was the way the argument was presented and words used that imo are (as previously said) sensationalist, and frankly way way OTT, and daft.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but no one is saying that smoking is good for you or others around you, and after 30+ years of 20 odd a day, trust me I know the harm it does.
Maybe it's just me, but making a valid point needn't come accross as such fire and brimstone, there are better ways to do it.
It could be argued that some have had enough of that over the last few years.

Some people just won't be happy until we're as miserable and as soulless as they are (that wasn't a dig at anyone on here btw).
If they can't have any sort of enjoyment, then nobody can.
With all that's happened over the last few years, I'd say just leave us the **** alone and let us find enjoyment where we can find it.
Life is too short to have every aspect of our lives watched over and controlled by control freaks and drama queens.

Indeed.
There was a similar situation where I used to work where one employee kept getting a whiff of cig smoke from the smoking area about 10 meters away from the workshop.
He went to the management making out his health was being affected and was concerned about (insert nonsense claims).
He was also a tech who didn't use an exhaust extractor fan whilst the rest of us did, so it was clear he was just moaning for the sake of it (he was a cyclist).
Amazingly the company who were health and saftey mad (they tried to stop us drinking tea/coffee in the workshop incase some chemicals etc got in our drinks) completely ignored his claims and did nothing at all about it.
Fwiw, the company soon dropped the rule of no cups in the workshop when we all downed tools if we couldn't stay hydrated when working (it's incredible what'll happen when a companies profit is threatened).

I quit a few years ago after the doc thought I possibly had throat cancer.
Fortunately that wasn’t the case.
