A personal boycott
During the World Cup I am personally boycotting any establishment that has the football on; especially if they did not have a television in the establishment before now. To wit I will not be going to the Willow Walk nr Victoria nor Caramel. Both of these establishments now have large TVs blaring out the World Cup matches. It ruins my enjoyment of the establishment so I shan’t be going in there.
Why do I tell you this? Because this is a clear example of what non-smokers should be doing instead of imposing their fascists attitudes on the rest of us (same with anti-hunting idiots). If you don’t like something, boycott it, don’t wimp out and use the cudgel of the state to ruin it for everyone else. I would include people who want to ban the burning of the American flag in this as well/
I hope those of you who find wall-to-wall World Cup an annoyance and an affront will join me in boycotting places that have no taken your feelings into account. If you really are annoyed write the company a letter as I have to Whetherspoon but don’t go to your local MP and whinge.

Your logic is as daft as your opinions. “Same with anti-hunting idiots?” I agree with you about the non-smokers and the World Cup. Sure, the best thing to do if you don’t like these things is avoid them and let those that do get on with their dubious pleasures. But how does that approach relate to hunting? Personally, I think hunting with hounds is barbaric and cruel. So unsurprisingly I choose not to do it. But it’s not me getting chased to the death across the countryside is it? The foxes, deers and hares don’t have the option of going down the pub to watch the footie instead, do they?
