Anyway about this smoking ban. Have any of you heared on the news that the tobacco companies might be bringing out a smaller cigarette but with as much nicotine as a regular one? Apparently it's so you can smoke quicker when outside but still get the normal nicotine hit your used to.

So just what do they put in there?

I've no idea!!

They just said it would be smaller because people are complaining about having to stand outside in the cold and rain. So the companies are making them smaller so you can smoke quicker.

JOSH_IOU · 7th February 2008, 16:13

but there is still the same amount of tobacco right?

its a marketing ploy following the ban to keep the smokers smoking & make them feel theyre doing them a favour

wino · 7th February 2008, 16:27

Smokers are having to get cold and wet. Well then maybe they should give up.

What ever happened to free will.
Hey smoking is a LEGAL drug and it's taxed accordingly.

I'm well aware of the arguement that smokers take up extra resources for the NHS, but the tax money from tabacoo duty ISN'T passed on to fund the NHS as it should be.

and they apparently are exempt from this ruling and can smoke at the bar in Parliament....WHY?
