Scotland: now Lib Dem wants ban on smoking in cars with children

A Lib Dem politician has called for a ban on smoking in cars carrying children.

South of Scotland MSP Jim Hume will try to outlaw the practise via a private members bill.

How very liberal!

You can read my reaction - and the predictable response of ASH Scotland's Sheila Duffy - in today's Scottish Sun.

Note: my response is based on a five-minute phone interview so some of my comments are paraphrased.
