Indoor smoking may soon be banned

[rvZA]

Parliament has approved the submission of the Tobacco Products Control Bill to parliament. This means smoking indoors may be prohibited.

If passed, the bill would replace the current Tobacco Products Control Act.

The bill proposes, among other things, 100% smoke-free indoors and a limited number of outdoor areas, a ban on the sale of vending machines and a greater emphasis on warning signs on cigarette packaging. The latest bill introduced to parliament aims to reduce tobacco-related disease, disability and death.

Binnehuise rook dalk binnekort verbied

Die parlement het die voorlegging van die Wetsontwerp op die Beheer van Tabakprodukte aan die parlement goedgekeur. Dit beteken om binnenshuis te rook, kan verbied word.

All I can tell parliament and government.... good luck and f**k off and die.

 

[Mike Hoxbig]

I bet the doek is behind this...

 

[Pudding McTwinkle]

Good.

 

[WizardOfAges]

Good.

Seconded.

 

[rvZA]

Good.

Yeah. This is only the test phase. If they pull this off, next up will be an indoor drinking ban. These two walk together hand in hand. And, before you know it, a ban on indoor visits by friends and family to protect the State against any possible planning of attacks.

Yeah, and then a ban on physical touching, then no more kissing, and then a total ban on sexual relations. Because why not?

This is how all communist regimes start off and progress to. No wonder millions already fled this country.

Laws mean very little in failed states. The anc will eventually find this out the hard way.

True. The more acts they sign into law, the more control and power they lose over the country.

 

[backstreetboy]

Lights up a vape. Good luck government.

 

[Howdy]

It;s been found the ANC causes hypertension. Let's rather start there.

 

[Harmonic]

Soon may be gone, those days of grabbing a beer and cramming into the smoking section at CT international before a domestic flight. Done at least 200 or so in this spirit sad days

Are Scandinavian countries communist by any chance?

Are Scandinavian countries communist by any chance?

Some would say they are capitalist countries. Some would say they are social democracies. Some even call them straight socialists. But, any country where the government goes as far as telling citizens what they can and cannot do in the privacy of their own homes are simply communists. They are merely masquerading under the pretenses of socialism, democracy (which both are communists) or even capitalism. So, if they have such laws, yes, they are communist regimes irrelevant of what anyone else refers to them.

 

[3WA]

None of the bars I frequent enforce the existing smoking laws, so not sure why they'd enforce the new laws.

 

[RedViking]

Haven't seen someone smoking indoors in a very very long time. Not even Viking the Old Man was allowed to smoke indoors.

Probably just those taverns you people frequent.
