My hon. Friend has been talking about alienating minorities, but what does he think the difference is between what is happening in Ireland and what he thinks might happen here? I assure him that during the Health Committee’s visit to Ireland it was clear that a total ban, introduced very quickly, has been accepted by almost everyone—including smokers in pubs, who go outside to have a smoke. What is the difference between Ireland and here, that makes him anticipate trouble?
