Getting a good number of emails asking what I feel about the vote to ban smoking in English pubs and (oh yes, this too) private clubs too.

Fuming, I guess, would be a start.

Helpfully, (at least for any British Conservatives who might be reading this) the BBC has published details of how MPs voted. It includes the names of those ‘Conservative’ MPs who couldn’t even bring themselves to reject proposals to exempt private clubs from the ban. There are a lot of them.

Draw your own conclusions.
