Sure it is. British Tobacco may not want you to work for them if you're
an anti smoking activist. Or if your SO works for RJ Reynolds. Or if you
jump out of airplanes, it may not be wise to put you on the critical

It may not be legal in the UK to ask these sorts of questions, but the
law is broken. The questions are legitimate.
