THE idea that more people are giving up smoking because tobacco sales are falling is not true.
Some people who gave up are now on the weed again due to the stress of life living with all the problems this Government is forcing onto us.
The reason tobacco sales are falling is that more people are buying imported tobacco.
More children are smoking, this is evident from watching when school is out.
The first thing kids do is light up. If you tell them not to do anything, they will do it.
They can get booze and drugs and this Government is wasting its time banning things and making them more of a challenge.
The Government is the biggest drug baron as it taxes tobacco to the hilt, then says you cannot smoke, only outside.
If you are caught they fine you and reap more revenue.
What next?
