    This seems to be a huge debate at the moment so I'm going to propose the topic:

    "Smoking should be completely banned in pubs."


    If you are interested in being on a pro- or anti- debating team please post here saying "In Favour" or "Against".

    Do NOT, repeat do NOT start debating the topic, this is only for garnering who is interested in the debate and on which side.

    Anything else will be cut and banned.

    Thanks,

    DeV.

    ????? Of course there isn't a debate. deV's asking for volunteers for the teams.

    I'm willing to go on the "in favour" team, although it will depend on the dates this is agreed for.

    What Bonkey Said. You'll notice a severe lack of "debate" on this thread... thats cos I've binned them all.

    Looking for a few good smokers to stand up for their rights and be ready to argue "against" the motion.

    Anyone? Bueller? Buelller?
