And I speak as someone who gave up a 30 a day habit so I know exactly how hard it is to give up. Having my kids gave me the impetus and motivation to kick the habit for good - I certainly never wanted them to see me with a fag in my hand all the time, nor subject them to second hand smoking.
I will be as "judgmental" as I wish on a public forum - or are we not supposed to offer our opinions on stories in the news? It's a far cry from accosting individuals in the street to harrass them - that's just plain rude, unless of course they are infringing my personal space by forcing me to breath in their exhaled smoke. Then I will have my say. Sadly unborn babies and children don't have the option to protest do they?

tbf Angus Vicky has just as much right to put down her concerns and not be greated with a torrent of abuse as you do to state your opinions and give her that torrent of abuse imo
