British Anti-Ban Blog and other recent News

Found this in my researching today.
Quite interesting if I may say so. I do NOT want this to go to OCR, so please, just allow me to define terms here, about British politics, and let it go.

It's the Labour Party's (the more Socialist and leftish of the two major parties in the UK) members and insiders who are beginning to balk over the smoking bans there. The bans are alienating Labour's traditional working-class constituents. Seems that there's a bit of a revolt about the bans. They won't be repealed, but the lack of common sense provisions and exceptions to the bans is fueling the movement.

Way too many pubs are closing out right, and restaurant business is way off throughout the country.
