This is in Scotland UK.

However, criminals can smoke while smokers become criminals!!

I'm all for a ban, but since criminals in prison already get their board & lodgings, meals & education (including degrees) paid for, and they get to continue to smoke, is the law an ass or am I having a nervy breaker?

hmmm, I do not like being told what to do... I understand the discouragement of smoking, but making you a criminal?? Sounds a bit too insane for me.

And if its criminal outside jail it should be criminal inside too...so if you want my vote Mel, the law is an ass!

I have been quit for 2 months today.
