Ban smoking in public places

Additional Information

People die every day from diseases, accidents and poverty - these are problems that cannot be stopped easily - but smoking in public places can be which has not been stopped in the past due to the money made by the government...but should we prioritise money over health? No.

By public places we mean: parks, bus stops, outside hospitals and anywhere on the streets.

In the long run passive smoking kills because smokers have made the choice to inhale life threatening drugs, but people who have made the choice not to are still getting affected…how is this fair?! Smokers are worse than burglars so if the government can protect you from them why can’t they protect you from smokers?

We just want the government to ban smoking in all public places so innocent people don't get harmed. So please, help us and everyone else and do something about it before it’s too late and sign this petition.
