This life long non-smoker (cigars don't count, right?) is making a principled stand (glass of beer in hand, I hope) at the "Save our Pubs and Clubs" event this afternoon, hosted by MPs Greg Knight, Roger Godsiff and John Hemming. I shall report further in due course. For now I just hope the weather holds and (as I am running late from my previous engagement) the security is not too dire.
