Someone was saying this to me at the weekend when ranting on about having to go outside for a fag :S

Legally, there is no smoking ban in Parliament. But... everyone agreed at the time the ban came in the rest of the country that there will be no smoking anywhere in the Houses of Parliament. There are smoking areas, but they are all outside the building.
