And if the selfsame politicians were to be scrupulously honest(I'm "speaking" hypothetically here, you understand ... since whoever heard of an honest politician!?
) they would be forced to admit that there are double-standard tactics at play where the smoking habit is concerned.
On the one hand, parliamentarians almost everywhere on the planet nowadays HAVE to be SEEN to comply with directives issued by the World Health Organisation; on the other, ALL governments - without [any] exceptions (that I know of) - are perfectly willing to overlook their collective "dictates of conscience" in favour of raking-in colossal amounts of revenue derived from the sale of the very products they purport to outlaw.Bloody hypocrites!!!
