All the attendees would have suffered far worse lung pollution on the journey there. I vote we ban all buses and tube trains as a precaution.That is not the point though. There is a ban on smoking in areas such as that. The law covers the O2 arena and so it should be enforced.Like the seat-belt and mobile phone laws are?

It should be the council taking action against O2 (arena owners)

I personally don't think the law should exist however, seeing as it does I would like to see it upheld otherwise it is just making a mockery of the whole thing. If you can't be arsed to enforce then don't f-ing bother.
sHANDY! Illegal!Who voted for that then?
They did the same in Glasgow a few weeks ago and got away with it there too.http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/scotland/glasgow_and_west/5290278.stmBloody good show ~ the law owes them after the fit up with that raid back in the sixties.OK Wenchy I know you are too young to know about that but we old 'uns do not forget nor forgive. http://news.bbc.co.uk/onthisday/hi/dates/stories/may/10/newsid_2522000/2522735.stm
The council is to investigate whether Keith Richards smoked on stage
