Pressure on for total smoke ban
Health campaign groups and MPs are
increasing calls on the government to
wipe out smoking completely in all
enclosed public places.
It follows earlier news that the
government was set to drop plans for a
partial ban covering pubs and bars
which did not serve food.

issue on Thursday, said a spokesman.
MPs and peers from all three major
political parties have urged the prime
minister to issue an all-out ban.
