Anti-Tobacco Activism

    Are there any grass-roots anti-tobacco activists in Ireland? I am thinking of something like the great Australian Buga-Up movement.
    ASH and the Irish Cancer Society do their best with tiny resources but the main activity is by the Department of Health. Their work is not bad, but they target smoking without ever commenting on what bastards the industry are.
    Something a bit more visceral would be a good thing, to bring the industry and their sock puppets out in the open and make their smug, well paid lives just a little less comfortable.
    The tobacco business kills half their customers, markets unethically to children wherever it can and is remarkably generous to politicians.
    Anyone out there interested?
