I doubt that the actual councillors had much to do with it other than to rubber stamp the proposal. Salford "Wellbeing" Dept will have dreamed it up. <br />The plan started with Wigan Council who banned ecigs in its buildings and vehicles. Now TC has moved over to Salford to take the next step as indicated. <br />It is up to Salford people and Council employees to protest. If they do not, then they are daft. Despite the fact that Unions generally are in favour of smoking bans, you would think that the Employees union would draw the line at their smoking and vaping members being singled out for persecution in this way.Junicannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3141759542968821728.post-88720910956323792682013-10-22T11:59:26.508+01:002013-10-22T11:59:26.508+01:00Salford Council should phone up Salford University...Salford Council should phone up Salford University and ask why it decided to permit ecig use outside of public areas.JonathanBagleynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3141759542968821728.post-49476434384190536432013-10-22T09:53:55.055+01:002013-10-22T09:53:55.055+01:00This shows just how misunderstood e-cigarettes are...This shows just how misunderstood e-cigarettes are. The council clearly haven't taken the time to understand how an electronic cigarette works or to look upon them as a separate entity. As a retailer of electronic cigarettes I encounter this level of ignorance quite a lot, it would be nice to see some time taken by people to understand what they are talking about.Billy Webbhttps://smartcigs.co.uk/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3141759542968821728.post-53425333638308600552013-10-21T23:56:43.241+01:002013-10-21T23:56:43.241+01:00Dear Mr Puddlecote

I.e. replace 'a few seconds ago' <i>et sequencia</i> (ideally to my mind) with '11.50pm Monday, 21 October 2013' .<br /><br /><br />By the way it is my birthday tomorrow (4 minutes away) - one of my 3 a year (increased to 6 as required by the ash/nhs starttober campaign).<br /><br /><br />DPDPnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3141759542968821728.post-71628574927382702342013-10-21T23:48:39.249+01:002013-10-21T23:48:39.249+01:00Dear Mr Puddlecote

Perhaps a few hundred smoking, vaping and neither voters congregating outside the premises of the council might help them take a more relaxed view?<br /><br /><br />One can but hope.<br /><br /><br /><br />DPDPnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3141759542968821728.post-69756669835649422972013-10-21T23:30:45.232+01:002013-10-21T23:30:45.232+01:00Are e-pipes included?

To quote my late grandma "they would vote for a monkey dressed in red" in Salford. They would and as a consequence they might be better off led by monkey's. Salford council is awful but it is the will of those who elect it. My only concern is that the stupid and illiberal attitude of Salford Council may infect others and have an adverse impact on the rest of us.Ivan Dnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3141759542968821728.post-69626493891339003522013-10-21T22:36:23.351+01:002013-10-21T22:36:23.351+01:00This is the proof of the complete failure of the s...This is the proof of the complete failure of the smoking lobby when bonkers ideas like this get inroduced, the extemists have no opposition whatsoever and will introduce more and more outrageous bans.<br /><br />Smoking lobbyists have had several years to sort themseleves out , but instead they are a completely unknown force amongst million of smokers and have decided to convince themseleves that smoking is harmless.<br /><br />Pro smokers you get what you deserve., and its quite funny watching the smokerloonies outrage whilst remaining anonymous.<br /><br />HOW THE FUCK WILL YOU CHANGE ANYTHING WHILST YOU ALL HIDE BEHIND FAKE NAMES , YOUR LEADER SIMON CLARK DOES NOT SMOKE AND YOU BELIEVE SMOKING DOES NOT KILL.<br /><br />Denial is not just about smoking but common sense too.<br /><br /><br />RICKIEREEKYnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3141759542968821728.post-69282462991642606162013-10-21T22:27:53.376+01:002013-10-21T22:27:53.376+01:00Moderation eh?
