ha ha, I actually caught that live, talk sport is on my shed radio

Its what i listen to while having a fag, usually its mindless rubbish about sport.
On the odd occasion i'm out there after 10 or whenever this rubbish starts i get to chuckle about it for 5 minutes or so.

Anyway, I heard this and I wasn't offended, taking rather to seriously I think.
The other guy was being rather 'holier than thou' about the whole thing.
Gaunts point was that being a smoker does in no way stop a couple from giving a child the love and support they need in an incredibly difficult time, and is a truly pathetic reason to exclude people from doing this.

Considering the number of adoption couples has dropped sharply, I don't see why such an irrelvancy is being considered.

Yes, by all means, restrict and control smoking AROUND the child, insist the home is a smoke free zone.
