I want to ban stupid-menstrual-semi-feminist-fat-slappers from telly. (This includes Kyle and Vine)
Hmm it is obvious you do not watch the programme! I find your observations insulting!
I have sat through about 3 or 4 episodes of the programme. It rates no higher than the Jeremy Kyle show with me..or that annoying phone in thing on Channel5..the Wright stuff.
Goes to show what a sexist person you are as none of the women on that show are a) stupid, b) semi-feminist c) fat ( what is wrong with that) and d) being slappers well, how would you know, do you know them personally? and finally c) menstrual, yes you got that right, and if women were not menstral you wouldn't be here!!!!
I thought this was a nice forum with friendly people who can have a good debate and can be rude to each other in a friendly fashion but you have overstepped the mark with your degrading views of women!
ban boldie the insulting german sexist pig!
was wondering
while cooking dinner
how they get the figures for smoking costs the nhs £X. seems like it would be almost impossible to get an accurate figure but obv I'm not a statistician so wadda I know
Womans job innit ??
Thats what boldie told me, and in no way reflects the views of my good self

I like the system in Florida - anywhere serving food - total smoking ban. Nightlcubs and the like, total ban. Places that are bars only are allowed to allow smoking.
People then have choices and supply and demand will take care of which venues will succeed.
In that scenario, I then don't have to give a rats arse about the 'rights' of non-smokers (employees or patrons) who would then choose to spend time in 'my' smoking venue over 'their' non smoking venue. Equally I wouldn't go to a non smoking venue and insist I should be allowed to smoke.
Just allow choice imo and let the market take care of the rest

take a drive/walk/cycle through any small town these days and count the number of for sale boards up on pubs. You can also go into most pubs and get your pick of where to sit, since they are being deserted in droves. hundred of pubs are closing every month.
This is nothing to do with the smoking ban. It is because lots of greedy people opened lots of new pubs when the economy was booming and lots of people had lots of disposable income.
wrong the decline in the pubs happened along time before the downturn in the econmy with people prefering to stay at home with a beer and a smoke than goto the pub
then all the non smkoers decided not to goto the pub as there was no one there
smoking ban is actually going to do more harm than good as many people will now be smoking at home infront of there kids when before they would disapear to the pub for a smoke

Nah, the decline in pubs has been going on long before the smoking ban came in. The big pubcos (Punch, Enterprise etc..) have a lot more to do with the decline imo, along with cheap supermarket booze and big brewers knackering the market. All these "Fancy" "Foreign" lagers which are just cheap shite sold under a fancy badge and clever branding.

Ban bacon, alcohol, and butter, I know I can't die from passive bacon, alcohol and butter intake however watching other people eat such things makes me want to and how can I be blamed for my own lack of self discipline.

How many people have died from passive rave music?
not many died but a few hundred thousand are disabled through it every year and those numbers will increase as people get older as the damage is irreversible even if its not showing yet

Anybody standing in a doorway should be shot often with the largest calibre bullets available.
Why do most people actually not know what a doorway is for ? If people didn't need to go in and out the builders would have used bricks !!! Get out of the bloody way.

I don't have a degrading view of women in general. Just these women (and Oprah type women)..in the same way that I don't hate all man for thinking Jeremy Vine and Jeremy Kyle and Mr Wright are all lowlife-scraemongering- assholes that pander to the racist and unemployed.

If I own a pub, i employee some smokers who love to smoke, and i pay my taxes and create their taxable positions why the hell should I be told that people cannot smoke in my pub?
I really dont understand why they are aloud to tell you what to do with your own business/building.
People who dont want to smoke dont come in and definately dont apply for a job.
Most pubs are closing because they are badly run imo.

So you'll be discriminating against non-smokers in your employment?
The best possible person for the job won't necessarily get the job?
And no, most pubs close because it costs so much more to go out then it does to buy from the supermarket.
