Oh I'm well aware of that. I'm not saying because they are banning smoking, they can't ban anything else.

My point is that they tackle the lesser problem first and with much more resolve than they tackle the really critical problems. This isn't necessarily a UK thing, it's something that I see with many europeans governments lately, but it just bothers me to see it over and over again.

My point is that those working on lesser problems might come up with solutions much faster than those working on bigger problems, making it seem that they go after them first.

Also not doing anything about anything until the worst problem is perfectly solved is completely idiotic. You'd end up never doing anything at all.
