 | | WITH the first anniversary of the New York smoking ban looming, Grammy award winning musician Joe Jackson has joined forces with the smokers' lobby group FOREST to protest against the ban and the threat of similar legislation in the UK. |
 | | Jackson, whose hits include 'Is She Really Going Out With Him?', 'It's Different For Girls', 'I'm The Man' and 'Steppin' Out', has recorded a song, 'In 20-0-3', attacking the New York ban and ridiculing the claim by Mayor Mike Bloomberg that passive smoking was killing 1,000 New Yorkers per year. |
 | | Jackson believes that, contrary to media reports, resistance to the New York ban is growing. |
