All for it, but I highly doubt there would be much enforcement. Many bars don’t even bother with the indoor smoking ban after a certain time, let alone outdoors
i don’t smoke, but i don’t agree, esp if its a space with a small smoking area – don’t like it, stay away
Sounds good, it’s pretty strange to allow people to blow poison at innocent bystanders tbf. But doubt it would be enforced at all here, so would be more symbolism than a real law.
100% agree, mostly because I’m sick of seeing discarded cigarettes everywhere (I suppose this is more of a reinforcement on littering issue, but clearly people can’t be expected to be decent human beings who dispose of their cancer on a stick properly).
Also, our quality of air is shit enough as it is without having assholes light up cigarrets right beside me while waiting for the bus, (to have them toss said cigarette on the ground when the bus shows up).
Of course, if they did get banned, I doubt it would be enforced, since there is a severe lack of discipline among the Maltese and all we do is complain about foreigners ruining our country while we’re doing a pretty good job of that ourselves
I think improving air quality is very important but second hand smoke from cigarettes and vapes are not the main concern regarding this issue at the moment …
I smoke but am all for it. When I’m not feeling well the smoke makes me even sicker so I reckon that’s how a non-smoker feels.
Also it won’t be enforced like everything else.
Finally, but I think designated smoking area should provide for smokers as well.
