Smoking Ban 'Should Extend To Beer Gardens'

The smoking ban should be extended to pub gardens, outdoor restaurant tables, the school gates and public parks, a new report has suggested. According to the Royal Society for Public Health (RSPH), more needs to be done to "de-normalise" smoking and make lighting up even more inconvenient. The RSPH's findings prompted anger from pro-smoking lobbyists – who said such legislation would "discriminate" against Britons who choose to smoke.
