Distro - Smoking Ban In England? 

Magnum Photographers 

Smoking could be banned in every cafe, restaurant and most pubs in England within a few years under plans being unveiled today, Tuesday 16th November 2004, by the government . Also concerned will be enclosed public areas such as offices and factories.

Only private clubs, where members voted to allow smoking and pubs which do not serve prepared food would be exempt. The plans mean that up to 90% of bars could be smoke-free within a few years. Here is a selection of images from the archives of smoking in public places in England.
