PM "nervous" about banning smoking in cars carrying children

The Press Association reports that 'David Cameron has distanced himself from plans to ban adults smoking in cars with children present.'

I shall be discussing the subject on LBC (with James Whale) in approximately 30 minutes (ie just after 4.00pm).

The BBC has the story too.

Note how differently they cover the story, from the headline 'Cameron hails smoking ban' to the implication that despite the PM's misgivings the government will have a "serious think" about banning smoking in cars.

One story, two interpretations. Fancy that.

PS. James Whale (LBC) told me on air that I am charming but I talk a load of rubbish. Pot. Kettle. Black.
