I occasionally went to a bar in Singapore. Its walls were heavily nicotine stained because people frequently smoked there. The interesting thing is that it was, and I have no doubt still is, to smoke indoors in a public place in Singapore. However, even with the draconian approach to enforcement for which Singapore is famous, the barman felt perfectly relaxed about allowing people to smoke because he knew that everyone who drank there was aware of what was going on and had a huge choice of bars nearby where they could drink in a smoke-free atmosphere. How sad it is that the UK health fascists cannot tolerate such an approach.
I actually think that in some ways the longer Nick stays in jail the better, because it will highlight how bad this act is, but I feel sorry for the guy, so perhaps you'd better cough up. I have done so. At least your money will do no harm, unlike the money raised by that useful idiot Bob Geldorf in Live Aid, which, like so much aid money and charity that is given to Africa, principally was used to buy guns.
