It gives you a warm feeling - or is that cancer?
From the BBC -
"In the 1950s the Chancellor of the Exchequer Harold Macmillan put the financial benefits of cigarettes over the nation's health, records show.
Then health minister Robert Turton advised the 1956 Cabinet to "constantly inform the public of the facts" of the link between smoking and lung cancer.
But Mr Macmillan, who was prime minister from 1957 to 1963, said tax revenue from smoking was too valuable."
It is nice to know that the politicians are on your side. MacMillan was a Conservative and the first Prime Minister I remember. I have never voted for a Conservative, looks like I never will.
