PS i don't smoke.
Absolutely wrong
All the income from tax on fags goes to the government coffers to be spent where ever they see fit, not one penny of it is designated directly to the NHS
Smokers spout this bollox to justify filling their lungs with black shite and the subsequent burden on the NHS that they become.
As a non smoker I'm surprised that you are quoting this.
