How Australia is stubbing out smoking

Australia was the first country in the world to introduce mandatory plain packaging for tobacco products - and the UK will have followed suit by May this year. But will any country copy Australia's plan to keep increasing taxes until a packet of cigarettes costs AUD$40 (£24)?

It's not easy being a smoker in Australia.

The smoking bans started inside - in workplaces, bars and restaurants - and moved out.

The war against smoking is already won I'd say. Smoking is now looked so down upon you'd rarely see people smoking outside. The remaining smokers are a dying breed and should be left alone. The increase of obesity thats infesting nations should rather be fought with this fervor. I want to see the same shocking labels on junk food items.
