Thats my point entirly, i dont want to employ someone who doesnt smoke, even if that is non-smokerist, i dont care, most of my old work mates in the building trade smoke like billyo, and thats fine, we all smoke, we dont complain, we just get on with our work.

If i own a pub i can refuse to serve people if i choose, they can refuse to come in, nobody is forcing anyone to do anything at present.

You dont have to go to a pub like you might have to go to the tax office, or to post office.

Its all a matter of choice, i choose to smoke, i dont inflict it on anyone whoi is that unwilling, if they really hated it that much they wouldnt be there to begin with.

Pubs are not like other places, it should be like an extension of your living room, there are lots of pubs i wont go to, because for one reason or another i dont like it. Maybe some non smokers should buy up some pubs and make non smoking pubs, wouldnt that be the sensible freemarket approach?
