I don't think it's a case of not seeing the posters.....they just choose to ignore them. Last week at Manchester Piccadilly (which was non-smoking even before July 1st) one woman was lighting up right below the Tannoy speaker as it was blaring out the "do not smoke" message
Despite the new legislation they will continue to get away with it because very few people are willing to confront them for fear of a violent reaction. We are living in a country where a rapidly growing number of people have a total disregard for law and order and the feelings of others.
