As a smoker I'm more than a little pissed off. Mainly because £480 million a year was pumped into the NHS from the tax they already cream from cigarette sales, plus I currently pay £52.27 a week in national insurance, and most of that goes towards the NHS... the doctor that refuses me treatment better be dieing before he tells me to fuck off


Smokes are £4.72 ($8US'ish) a pack at my local shop and most of that is tax...
