'If you put a kid in the car with second hand cigarette smoke, you are basically killing them.'
I want to have smoking banned in cars that carry children under the age of 16. Some countries already ban smoking in cars but in the U.K. we don’t. It’s unfair to children who have no voice or choice about inhaling second-hand smoke.

'If you put a kid in the car with second hand cigarette smoke, you are basically killing them.' Bit of a sweeping statement, Zander. Based on what evidence exactly? And who are you trying to scare, the smoker or the kid? Do you realise the potential psychological damage this might cause? Let's put posters up that scare kids to death. What about those whose parents ignore your advice? Oh yes, fine them, almost forgot. How come you're not pushing for a ban in houses too? Is that next on the list.... It's precisely this type of unsubstantiated anti smoking propaganda that does more harm than good. Tactics such as these merely alienate smokers, who are becoming increasingly sick and tired of being made the scapegoats for illnesses that are caused by other things. Maybe you should highlight the harm caused by car emissions, particularly those with diesel engines. Paradoxically, as smoking rates decline the incidence of asthma has risen (x4 in Wales since 1970). Are you blaming smokers for that? I wasn't aware that there are far fewer vehicles on the roads now than 39 years ago. I also note that one of the posters (Adam Parker) believes, somewhat irrationally, that second hand smoke is a bigger killer than direct smoking. Brainwashed or what? I don't see you trying to convince him otherwise....perhaps you agree.

You know I'll help if you need me. Good luck.

CALLING ALL VOLUNTEERS If anyone wants to help with a stunt I am doing which is happening in the 3rd week of March it will be based in central London. So if this interests you let me know. Z

Hello, have you made a tv advert? I've seen something very similar....
Bonnd, 09 February 2009 15:01
Thanks for replying, actually I didn't get any notification that you had replied so it was just good luck that I checked this board again. It's usually better to email people back directly as this board does not let people know if there is a reply for them (some message boards are set up to do this, others do not). It's just an idea, because not everyone comes back to check every board they visit. Yes please send me by email whatever I need to print up a poster, [email protected]
Lesley Dove, 06 February 2009 19:32
Hey Lesley Thank you very much for your interest in my campaign. Just getting waiting on getting the logo from the design company. Then I will happily either send you it in email form and you can print it to whatever size you want or you can give me a list of ones you would like and I will set them up for you. To anyone else that wants a copy of it please message me and I will happily send you one. Z
Zander, 02 February 2009 14:33
I would like to help but still do not know how to get hold of a poster from you. I emailed you on facebook and did not get a reply. I would like to ask the head teacher at my youngest child's school to put one up on the outside noticeboard where all the parents can see it, alternatively I'd like to ask my older kids' high school to display it. Please email me on Lesley @ vegan4life .org .uk (delete the spaces) as I am deadly serious about wanting to spread the word, thanks

Sarah - I am glad you like my campaign. I am not glad however you are going to smoke twice your daily intake just because it is No Smoking Day. For those of you who want to take part in an event I intend to put on to highlight this day please watch this space. Sarah - for you I have some patches...

Love your campaign mate... as a committed smoker of some 10 years or so i have to say i disagree with everything you stand for, however it is heartening to see that some people still have the guts to stand up for what they believe in!! No smoking day on the 11th March? I shall make sure I double my intake!!! Lots of love.... x

Hi Happy New Year and thank you for all your comments. I know it is a tough subject and there are a lot of different views but I am really pleased that even those of you who smoke recognise the need to do something about smoking in cars. Trevor - thank you for your comment. I am currently setting up a meeting with the Head of No Smoking Day (11th March) and I have found out that Duncan Bannatyne is going to be part of it this year so as far as VIP's go I certainly hope to get his support of my campaign! I will think on other people. Until then, please keep the comments coming and if anyone wants to get involved in my campaign please contact me. And if you have any ideas for a No Smoking Day stunt I would love to hear them!!
Z, 09 January 2009 12:03
Awesome campaign - I think it's great that you are trying to change something that should be changed. Good luck!
Caroline Murphy, 07 January 2009 20:31
I myself smoke but that would never get in the way of me supporting your campaign however how would it be enforced?
Martin, 04 January 2009 01:40
I couldn't agree with you more!
tim, 31 December 2008 14:21
Hi Just found your website. Think the idea of banning smoking in cars with children in is a good one - so many kids have asthma these days and smoking is known to be a factor in this.
