Most pubs have pretty decent smoking areas here, they're kind of out door rooms mostly, they usually have seats, tables and heaters and are mainly enclosed

Yeah, I support that notion to an extent.
:joker:

Smoking areas are the best, its where all the cool kids hang out.

Well it can't do any harm can it?

Upcoming generations will grow up where fags aren't on display and being advertised which will make somewhat of a difference. Yes of course if they have smoking peers or parents or whatever they may end up getting into it/copying anyway but not making them so attractive isn't a bad thing.

It's not going to affect any current smokers really but future generations it just might make a difference.

I dont think it makes a difference if they change the legal age.. I've never heard of anyone starting smoking above the legal age. Sure its fairly easy to find a shop that serve smokes to Ireland. If not just fish?

These plain boxes wont make a difference either, if it really bothered you im sure you could get a tin or a box to keep them in.. presuming they dont do it to pouches id just keep the pouch and skins+filters if they were that bad.

******ing retarded in the highest order.

If they think covering a packet of cigarettes in a white wrapper and having 'Mayfair' wrote on them in Comic Sans is going to stop people smoking then jog on.

hmmm I wonder will they mix up the brands sometimes.. Lazy shopkeepers giving golden virginia instead of amber leaf etc.

The perfect excuse to really bump up your street cred and get a cool cigarette case.

Well lets just see... A few uncomfortable images versus probably the most addictive drug in existance.... Hmmm which one will prevail

I think the nicotine will narrowly win through....!!!!
