New Member: New Clause 1 — Purchase of tobacco on behalf of children (12 Oct 2009) has video

Judy Mallaber: Does the hon. Gentleman not accept that one person's choice to smoke affects other people's choice not to smoke? One person's freedom stops at my nose when it comes to smoking.

Orders of the Day — Tobacco Advertising and Promotion Bill [Lords] — New Clause 2 — Commission of body to study the effects of Act (21 Oct 2002)

Miss Judy Mallaber: .... There has been plenty of time to discuss and make the case for them. I am pleased that the Opposition will not vote against Third Reading, but they have come up with the most extraordinary smokescreens to prevent tobacco companies from being stopped in their attempts to addict people, which is what they are about. They are living in cloud cuckoo land if they think that tobacco...

Orders of the Day — Tobacco Advertising and Promotion Bill [Lords] (29 Apr 2002)

Miss Judy Mallaber: Last week, I went to the funeral of a dear friend of mine, Veronica. None of us knew that she had cancer. We all knew that she smoked. It was obviously an emotional day for me and everyone else who was there. For every 1,000 20-year-old smokers, six will die from motor accidents and 250 will die in middle age from smoking. Another 250 will die later in life. I will do anything and support...

Orders of the Day — Tobacco Advertising and Promotion Bill [Lords] (29 Apr 2002)

Miss Judy Mallaber: I entirely agree. As we know, one of the major factors in whether people smoke is whether their parents smoke. I was lucky. For some reason, the people with whom I went round in my teens did not smoke very much. My mother did not smoke; my father did. He smoked a pipe most of the time and gave it up when he had his first stroke. Because I did not have the family pressure or the peer pressure,...

Miss Judy Mallaber: Will the hon. Gentleman explain exactly which individual liberty is being removed? I am not suggesting that we stop people smoking even though they impinge on my liberty by making me a passive smoker. Are we removing any liberty other than that of a tobacco manufacturer to entice individuals and entrap them into smoking?

Will he also reconsider the...

Opposition Day: Public Health (24 Jan 2001)

Miss Judy Mallaber: ...of tax cuts and maintaining spending—but because of the new structures and the way in which they are working. I should like to give a couple of examples. The House recently discussed smoking cessation. My area now has smoking advisers, who are available in general practitioners' surgeries. Doctors can pass patients on to such advisers, who will provide assistance and talk to them...
