Smoking in a queue / at a bus stop

I appreciate there aren't many places where you can have a cigarette indoors these days, but when people are queueing and can't get away - not without losing their place, anyway - it's really inconsiderate of people to smoke.

(Ideally I'd like phone conversations on loud speaker to be banned as well, but I'm probably expecting too much.)

AIBU to think this is highly antisocial?

Smoking is banned in some queues. For instance, Merlin have banned smoking in all queues at Thorpe Park, Madame Tassauds etc.

I think most people would at least consider it rude.

As a smoker ( who constantly wants and fails to quit) I completely agree with you. Second hand smoke can literally kill you.
