Petition Action

Ban smoking in public and in cars with children

Additional Information

In other countries the people's health is of more importance than any economic crisis and according to the NHS, more than 17000 children up to the age of five are taken to hospital for second hand smoke inhalation.

We should follow suit with other countries and ban smoking in public places (how many people hate walking past someone else's smoke in the street or when sat down on the beach?) as well as ban smoking in cars if children are present.

People forget the impact smoking has on children and are more concerned with their addictive habit. This has to stop for our children's sake.
