Rafferty: he's having a laugh

When he's not representing Forest, Neil Rafferty keeps busy writing for the satirical website The Daily Mash which he co-founded last year with his friend Paul Stokes.

Rafferty previously worked for the Press Association, Business AM and the Sunday Times in Scotland. Stokes is a former columnist with Scotland on Sunday, the Daily Record and the Scotsman.

Occasionally the worlds of satire and tobacco collide and the result is THIS.

How long we can go on laughing as politicians north and south of the border introduce one idiotic policy after another is another matter.

Great article - would be even funnier if wasn't for the fact that it is too near the truth!

Health secretary, Alan Johnson, said: "If you can't see nicotine, it can't see you. And, as any scientist will tell you, if something can't see you, it has no way of knowing you exist."

...is probably the funniest line I have read for a long time!
