I say no because the packets are often quite boring anyway, yet people still smoke. Also, nearly everybody knows about smoking now, so people will still choose to smoke, whether because of peer pressure, thinking it's cool, or common curiousty. Just completely banning smoking and cigarettes would be a much more sensible option, in my opinion, although even that might not stop it completely.

No, sadly. People are still going to smoke, sadly. If we want to stop people from smoking, then we have to get rid of them completely which still won't work instantly.

No, people say that smoking is addictive and it would be very hard to get people to stop smoking. Also, those people will encourage others to do it anyway, even if they do cost a lot of money.

No and yes. No-loads of people smoke already and are addicted, therefore, they will still keep buying them. Yes- people who don't smoke might not as they are..... SO EXPENSIVE!!! ??

no because most of the packets have disgusting images on them showing what smoking can do to you and your body, to try and put you off smoking and if the packets didn't have anything on them, people wouldn't be put off

People love, and I mean love smoking. I don't see how plain packets will help. If people want people to stop smoking, they should just destroy them. (I want them banned as j have asthma and whenever I walk through a public place I have to use my inhaler because of the unhealthy air).

Even though people say that packets make the difference they don't.

No, purely because it actually shows the outcome if you smoke, which might make people more aware.
