        @BBCBreaking @BBCNews I've just thought, so a non smoker in prison subjected to smoke, will be able to sue for damages on release? Probably

        @BBCBreaking @BBCNews if smoking is banned in prisons I believe there will be more riots.

        @BBCBreaking @BBCNews so basically, get a job as a prison guard and sue for millions when you are diagnosed with COPD. Easy dollar.

        @BBCBreaking @BBCNews Prisoners have more Human rights than I do. Why not just let them do what they want and put me in prison for smoking!?
