ASH Scotland Survey: on subjects like helping people give up smoking, discouraging them smoking in the home and in the car. There is a space for comments.
No doubt this will be circulated among ASH's contacts in Tobacco Control and used to prove that the public overwhelmingly supports ASH.

When CRUK published a press release on how the public were in favour of banning tobacco displays and cigarette machines. They quoted a survey done by Yougov that they commissioned.
So, l contacted Yougov and CRUK with a request for more information on this survey.
Response? .... zero,zilch. Not even an acknowledgement or refusal :)
This CRUK press release http://info.cancerresearchuk.org/news/archive/pressrelease/2010-25-07-public-support-to-remove-cigarette-vending-machines
oh yes, yougov ...
British Heart Foundation is also urging the public to lobby on vending machines and tobacco displays: http://www.bhf.org.uk/news-and-campaigning/our-campaigns/cigarette-machine-ban.aspx. But I don't think they commit the same resources to tobacco control that CRUK blatantly does - thousands in funding research every year. Unless I'm missing something?
Oh, l shall respond to CRUK ... watch this space. :)
