The point is this do we non smoker's have the rights to take smoker's to court?

Thats fair enough, lots of places will sack you if you come into work smelling of alcohol and a fair few also have minimum standards of dress code/hygeine etc. Stinking like an ashtray could breach those.
For once the EU court made a sane ruling it seems.
Nobody cares what you do in your own home provided what you do stays there. Heavy smoking stinks on a person for ages, its no different to getting drunk at home the night before and turning up to work stinking of vodka.
