Ban smoking in pub gardens? Feat. Ellie Henman & Kevin Maguire | Jeremy Vine 

The issue is where does it stop. Not allowed to be served more than two pints? Rationing on food? You can't police all behaviour.

Who's going to enforce this they don't even come if you've had a burglary

How about banning cyclists fron the roads unless they are licenced, taxed and insured?

Nanny state. It's not a banned substance.

I don't smoke and I say NO.

If they are banning smoking why not ban alcohol. A person puffing on a cigarette is better than someone who has had to much to drink who can be dangerous.

They will be banning smoking in your own gardens next,get real

Kevin would ban breathing if he could ..his voice makes me want to smoke more ..good luck in paying more taxes if everyone stopped smoking ffs

Kevin is even more of a joyless human than vine!

Ban them at bus shelters, not pubs. It’s so annoying when you’re peacefully sitting in a shelter during a rainy storm waiting for a bus and then some inconsiderate person comes along and lights up. You can’t leave a bus stop if you’re waiting for a bloomin’ bus!

Kevin is going to agree of course he'll agree with any thing Labour does I'm not a smoker but definitely don't agree with it

The woman is defending smoking despite admitting that she had to take a drug that made her sick when she smoked is simply crazy. This is what a nasty addiction does to you.

The fact that this woman needed a drug that induced vomiting so that she could stop shows that there is a strong argument for banning cigarettes all together.

Yep close more pubs...stop selling alcohol...smoking...food...vapes...water...air 😂😂😂😂

Shouldnt take children to beer gardens

Some of the vapes are just as bad. They don't care if it goes in your face or not. Just so rude

Best you ban all political parties from power maybe then everyone will have some peace in this miserable UK life.

Add bus stops to that list please.

I think the only place it should be banned is outside hospitals. Only because most of the people smoking have tubes and drips. Could cause combustion. It’s not nice to see just outside the hospital doors.

Smokers are selfish

Years ago in Norway the cafes had a room just for smokers, you just couldn't believe how many mother's took their small children and babies in there poor things , I'm allergic to smoke and hate it especially as it killed my husband giving him a heart attack and then lung cancer.

I wish every smoker would be fined at least £10 for every cigarette butt they drop on the ground.

People protested when the smoking ban came onto force, in door s of public places. Its accepted now. Same will apply and be accepted in time.

It should be banned outright. Next best solution is banned in public, Do what you want in your own home, outside, no.

Where do members of parliament go for a cigarette bet they won’t ban that place

Oh cry me a river …..the former smoker is unhappy with banning smoking outdoors……the fact it is a disgusting habit which kills people directly and indirectly doesn’t matter to these people !

"They're going to stop us breathing next" What hyperbolic reverse crap messaging is this? It is the smoking that interferes with breathing and yes you can be 10-30 meters away and still be subjected to smoke depending on conditions outside. Smoking is over, people just need to come to terms with it.

I had a pub when smoking ban came in, a COVERED welcoming area with LARGE SIGNS saying SMOKING AREA WAS MADE, I HAD TO BUILD AN OPEN BAR FENCE AND GATE SO THAT THE AREA WAS CLEARLY DEFINED the garden benches were 3 metres away from the area. NON SMOKERS would enter THE SMOKING AREA then complain that SMOKER'S WERE SMOKING IN THE DESIGNATED SMOKING AREA ???? SMOKER'S RESPECTED NO SMOKING AREAS, NON SMOKER'S did not respect SMOKER'S AREAS. Adults are very well informed of the consequences and are very highly taxed to be able to smoke , ALCOHOL AND DRIVING ARE NOW TARGETS WHAT NEXT????

Ban it. Sick of smelling gross smoke when I’m in a beer garden

The problem is that you may not ever had smoked , and you get diagnosed with non smoking lung cancer,

look at the way smokers just drop their butts everywhere..plus i cant go in the garden....

LIKE EVERYTHING ELSE UN UK LABOUR DO IT FOR THE PEOPLE AND ONE OF BEST BESIDES NHS WAS STOPPING SMOKING IN PUBS WERE I WORKED AND ENDED UP WITH ANGINA, CLOTHES STUNK EYES HURT THROAT HURT AS I WAS DJ, THANK GOD FOR LABOUR 😊😊😊😊

Ban it totally its disgusting, only place it should be allowed is on personal property

Been that way for many years in Australia - no problems. Everybody just gets excited and worried about change.

Childish presentation

Well, why not ban smoking in public? After all, they have been taxing walking and wearing clothes in public for years.

Im addicted to smoking because the goverment supplied me with them and now im broke because of the cost, they no different from drug pusher in reality, if people want to smoke they will, what starmer means is' we can fine those people now

Should be banned in pub gardens- it’s disgusting

Oh Jeremy you are such a wit! Ironically banning smoking in pub gardens will increase the burden on the NHS because people will live longer! Spoiler alert… the further into life you get the more likely you are to need to access healthcare regardless of how well you have taken care of yourself

Let people smoke if they want to, next it’s alcohol, then food, then what music? It can damage your hearing.Sport too dangerous. Pathetic leave us alone!

I don't smoke but doesn't bother me if people smoke around me ,and I don't like the thought of taxes going up because where are they going get the billions of pounds lost through vat. And vine us a total pratt.

No smoking no alcohol soon he'll be banning from eating pork and all meat will have to be halal 🤔🤔🤔 Mmm I wonder where this is going ??

Most drinkers are smokers hes trying to destroy landlords most pubs will shut the punters will drink at home

Don't e-mail Jeremy he gets upset easily

What about massive loss of tobacco jobs .

Yes definitely ban it everywhere.

Smoking weed alright ??

Kevin is a Karen 🙄

Well if we can't smoke outside, then we must be able to start smoking indoors, and public places, its either one or the other 😊

Dont believe smoking kills more people than drugs Smokers have respect for non smokers and they do smoke away from them.
