I live in Scotland - pubs have been non-smoking for a year now. Small pubs shutting, less people out and about, clubs stink of BO, go out for a smoke and your seat gets nicked or (at clubs) some bouncers won't let you back in.
I can see where the non-smokers are coming from but a total ban is not the answer.
Half the night is spent outside having a smoke and non-smoking mates generally come outside anyway.

yes, ventilation is now also installed due to farts, b.o.
in a room of some 90 -100 people drinking beer theres bound to be a couple of stinkers.
also business went down, advertising went up. rural pubs went bust.

No. They will come back out. Drinks and socializing are why you go..smoking is unnecessary
