      I would want to bad smoking, it causes around 100,000 deaths a year in the UK alone. We have known the dangers of smoking for a long time and despite myths to the contrary smoking costs the NHS more than the government make in tax from the sale of tobacco products.

      I know this would be a challenge but by making smoking illegal, helping addicts overcome the addiction and good policing of illegal tobacco trade it could help!
