£10 government permit plan to deter smokers

Really? An extra $20 (or whatever the exchange rate is now) per year is going to keep people from smoking?

This is just yet another government scam to add another level of control and grab a bit more extra cash. £10 is nothing to a smoker, that, because of tax is already paying £5.80 for a pack of twenty.
As an island we have always had a great tradition of smuggling and this will only encourage it further.
