This is a waste of time in my view and a very poor token gesture.

If they were really serious as trying to stop people smoking they would at least double the price of cigarettes.

No, they would stop selling ciggies period. Raising the cost is stupid and greedy considering the revenue they already make.

And when ciggies are banned, we can start on alcohol..which ruins many more lives than smoking does. Then we can start banning cream cakes and such. Then the NHS can collapse under the weight of millions of OAPs with alzheimers, and everyone will be happy
