  • @markie101uk tax on tobacco is simply legalized theft that our hypocritical politicians are getting away with, nothing more, I don't smoke but I still say tax on things like tobacco, petrol ect should be scrapped entirely

  • coke addicts say the same least smokers dont have to sell there house and go out scrumping for cars to feed it but at this rate looks like they will ,i gave up when i and my body was ready not cos i was told, my peak was 70 pound a week on cigs and 90 on booze id have happly gone without the odd pizza , toothbrush ,nice coat ,bill and spent more if i could turn back the clock so i doubt it makes much diffrents,i personally wouldnt empty the pockets of an addict specially when they work for it

  • Why waste all your money on fags and booze when you could be spending it on hookers? silly people.

  • they need to do something. i smoked for 10 years luckily i managed to stop . now i look back in disgust at the way i was, spending all my money on thise things i was so addicted.

  • This is not a charity earnestly making a plea but simply a government funded department... with a good name, set up purely to tell you and I something...and especially the media.

    It is not a real `charity` as such ..and its claim to be `also supported by the BHA` is also false as it is actually funded through that [fake] charity too.

    Sloppy journalism..simply and essentially a planted story by the HMG.

    All funded by you of course.

  • Hey! I have an idea! Lets find out what vices these anti-smokers have and tax them 20%. Seems fair to me. In fact... lets tax the living shit out of all of them! See how they like it !!!

  • Raising taxation will reduce the number of smokers by around 190k ?

    Where do these people pull these numbers from ? there arse i bet
