If we are going to go into personal experiences, I was born in the Rhondda valley and my father was a coal miner. I saw lots of people who were working down the mines suffering from emphysema, and many people suffered from it who had never smoked in their lives. All sorts of things cause so-called smoking-related diseases. It is no good the Minister shaking her head.
