It looks like the first vote on the Scotland-wide smoking ban may have an effect on the general election.

“MSPs are scheduled to vote on the Bill to bring in the ban just a week before polling day, catapulting the proposal back into the headlines at a crucial point of the campaign.

One labour party source said: “A lot of local Labour campaigns will be run from miners’ welfare clubs and Labour clubs, which will by and large be against the ban.”
