Pub smoking ban rebel Smith now opens the Puff-Inn in Calderdale
SMOKING rebel Stuart Smith has given his backing to a pub offering smokers the chance to enjoy a cigarette and a pint when it re-opens on Friday.
Smith - who has appeared in court accused of flouting the smoking ban - says he is supporting his friend Gil Cushing, leaseholder of the former Mellor's Bar in New Hey Road, Rastrick, who is reopening the pub under the name The Puff-Inn.
When the bar opens at 5pm Mr Cushing says he will be serving pints dressed as Richard the Lionheart while Mr Smith, dressed as St George, says he will be having a drink and a cigarette with customers.
Mr Cushing, 26, will be applying for the lecense for the premises. He accepted he would probably be the next one before the courts.
"Even thought I'm a non-smoker, I feel strongly about this and I'm prepared to face the consequences if I have to," he said.
