What the petition asks
Most people will agree that inhaling the poison in cigarettes should be optional. Yet we still have to breathe it in when simply walking in public. If you don't want to breathe in the health damaging smoke of passers by then sign this petition to get a government ban on smoking in public spaces.
Smoking and passive smoking has serious health risks. We should all be allowed to choose whether we want to be subjected to those risks.
