Smoking ban

The smoking ban came into force in England today. I don't smoke (I find it filthy) but you can guess my feelings on this.

Property owners should determine whether they want smoking on their premises, not the government. Let the market cater for niche needs.

Is it Al Qaeda? Perhaps. I would assume though that Brown reckons they "hate our way of life", just as his predecessor stated.

The solution against these Islamists is to:

1 - Pull all troops out of Iraq and Afghanistan.
2 - Cease from closely aligning ourselves with Bush.
3 - Pursue a non-interventionist foreign policy.

I doubt Brown would take heed of this, but we can hope.
