ALL SMOKERS ARE GUILTY

We live in the UK, we pride ourselves on living in a country where justice always prevails, the true guilty will be found guilty, the innocents will be found innocent.

If you have nothing to hide you have nothing to fear, ---- everyone is protected except
law abiding tax paying smokers it seems.

Yesterday Chris Minihan, from Liverpool was found guilty of a smoking offence with no tangible evidence and was fined £715.00 including costs of just because he is a confessed smoker who allegedly used a perfectly legal product an e-cigarette. in the cab of his vehicle.

According to the smoking Gestapo officer enforcement officer Yvonne Taylor, she watched his arm come in and out of the window with a cigarette, which got smaller on each occasion. She said "I could clearly see smoke emitting from the cab and the motion of him flicking ash,"------ "I then observed the cigarette stub flying from the driver's hand on to the grassed area below."

The trouble is as he is a confessed smoker, the prosecution do not need any evidence, They failed to Produce:-

  • Any samples of ash:-

  • Any Cigarette stub:-

  • Any photographic evidence, even a picture of the alleged cigarette stub that was clearly indicated to have been on the grassed area below:-
The smoking Gestapo officer enforcement officer was described as a credible witness by the chairman of the bench but failed to produce any tangible evidence, it seems that you do not need any tangible evidence if you want to prosecute a smoker.


Quite rightly Mr Minihan is lodging an appeal and may take the appeal all the way to the European courts of human rights.

In the true spirit of
Elmer Fudd, council officials stated Mr Minihan had been offered the opportunity to pay the fines but had declined and opted for court action and the council will continue to enforce the legislation on littering and smoking in accordance with national guidelines and council policy.

This begs the question why the fuck should Mr Minihan even consider paying a fine for alleged littering where is the evidence? --- He has broken no national guidelines by smoking an E-cigarette, --- and is the stated -- "council policy" --- a secret policy to persecute innocent smokers.

And to any smoking Gestapo officer a*seho*e reading this in the words of Elmer Fudd:-

Dis begs the qwestion why shouwd Mw Minihan even considew paying a fine fow awweged wittewing whewe is the evidence? He has bwoken no nationaw guidewines by smoking an E-cigawette, and is the stated -- counciw powicy --- a secwet powicy to pewsecute innocent smokews.

Why don't you get a pwopew job instead of pewsecuting innocent waw abiding tax payews and acting wike a twumped up wittwe Hitwew.

Merthyr foster ban condemned by just about everyone

Here's a statistic for you.

Merthyr Council’s website states it has 173 children in foster care and 69 fostering households in Merthyr Tydfil, yet it needs more.

That's a three figure deficit in adequate care for children. So what is the council's response? To irrationally ban smokers from fostering.

A CONTROVERSIAL no smoking policy for foster carers and adopters has been given the green light by Merthyr councillors.

Read the article if you like, but there is no signal anywhere within their ridiculous diktat that the practice of smoking in the presence of children is being banned ... just a prejudicial exclusion of smokers from fostering.

With children languishing in council care, this is not only highly irresponsible, it is nothing less than child abuse.

As previously reported here, a councillor who was adopted himself, has defected to UKIP over the matter as a result.

He's not alone in being disgusted by Merthyr council either. Further condemnation has come from radio personality Jon Gaunt, another who was fostered successfully and lovingly in the past by a smoker, and reprised his justified rant at Redbridge council (they being the ideological cunts who dreamed such an arrogant and disgusting policy in the first place).

“These councils are not putting the needs of children first, they are getting caught up in political dogma. These people are health fascists.”

Still, at least Merthyr can count on the Fostering Network charity to back them up, or maybe not.

A spokesman said: “A total ban could mean you could lose out on a number of good foster parents.”

We are used to seeing anti-smoker bans for the sake of the chiiildren, but it really does drag the depths of bigoted, hideous, self-righteous, conceited, disgraceful behaviour when a council purposely sets out to abuse the children in their care in order to push their selfish, misguided, damaging and entirely prejudicial anti-smoking agenda.

Merthyr council, especially Head Of Operational Children’s Services, Roslyn Rees, are beneath contempt.

They may have been swept away with the faux science foisted on their limited brains by ASH and other state-sponsored dick-scabbards, but to extend such hysteria to smokers in general while kids rot in council care is truly rancid.

You really don't want to know what I'd like to do to these cunts, so I think I'll leave it there.

Harriet “Harpic” Harman - The worm that turned!

HARRIET HARPIC HARMAN has demanded that one of Labour’s two top posts should always be held by a woman — because she believes men cannot be trusted to run organisations on their own.

Any resemblances to the words above and the video below are purely coincidental… I think.

Apparently, we now 'choose' to smoke outside

Yes, she is irritatingly and falsely self-righteous, has abused a system which lends itself to such, and really should be given a slap.

A woman who fell over in stilettos on a night out has won £18,000 in compensation. Selena Gilder, who had been drinking, broke a leg outside a pub when her heel became caught in a crack in the ground.

The 40-year-old took legal action against the pub's insurers, who settled out of court. Miss Gilder was on a girls' night out with four friends in October 2007 when the accident happened.

She had gone into the courtyard of The Albion pub in Tewkesbury, Gloucestershire, to smoke when her three-inch heel became stuck in a gap in some concrete.

Yes, a bona fide dickhead. We smokers would tend to agree. And why not when the abandonment of personal responsibility as a general rule of life is more than partly a contributory factor for the lack of sanity involved in smoking bans.

The one accusation you cannot possibly level at this annoying berk is that she 'chose' to be outside with her cigarette. But check the comments appended to the article for those who do.

Isn't it odd that the idea of freedom of choice only comes into play as a stick to beat smokers, and only when it suits a completely different argument.

Were those applying such logic advocating personal responsibility and self-determination before the government took away any such option with a law which wasn't democratically tested? What do you reckon?
