Ban smoking in supermarket, shop and other queueing systems.

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

It has become apparent that some inconsiderate people are lighting up and freely smoking in the current, often lengthy queues to get into supermarkets and other such establishments. This put others at risk of harm from second hand smoke.
I would like to propose a ban on smoking and vaping in public spaces such as these.
