We can now post videos on the forum instead of just linking to them, look for the Google, You Tube and Real Media buttons in the tool bar when you post.

I thought I'd make my first proper post here if I may and although this is about the smoking ban I realise that smoking is not everybodies cup of tea and would not like to offend any non smokers on the forum. A few of us on F2C make videos about how the smoking ban effects the pubs/clubs and bingo halls and how these venue operators are being forced to be smoking police and enforce the ban on their premises or face being hauled through the courts and given stringent fines. If they do enforce it they are putting themselves and their staff in the danger.

I put together a video about the madness of it all and especially our four superhero's on this clip. Here it is then.

I´m a non smoker but I support F2C 100%. This is something that should have been left for the market to decide not the government.

hi Big Yin , i believe this stupid ban is not about smoking it is about control ,and it is deliberately putting smaller businesses out of business (further attacking and removing large portions of the "middle class" where most of their*gov/establishment* opposition is ).

does anybody really think that their government cares about their health ?? when they support big agri-business in poisoning us ,and also aiding in the cover-up of the health problems associated with all our processed foods?

the obvious answer in a reasonable world would have been to let publicans make a choice of whether to be a smoking establishment or non-smoking , therefore making his/her own mind up on their own livelihoods ,and also giving customers the opportunity to make their own choice

Yes it looks as though it's aimed at control, and to break up the community, stop group gatherings.
