The son of an anti-smoking campaigner says his family continues to be bullied by tobacco giant, British American Tobacco.

In 2002, Jamie McCabe's mother Rolah won a landmark legal battle against the tobacco company.

The judgement was overturned nine months later and her estate was ordered to pay costs.

Now the tobacco company has warned Mr McCabe that his home may have to be sold to recover those costs.

Mr McCabe says the company has been using the same bullying tactics since his mother's death.

"I am not surprised, but I am disgusted," he said.

"They're not concerned by the money. They're just concerned about making our family go away and we're not prepared to do that."

He said they will continue the battle their parents started.

"My parents were determined to fight it ten years ago and we're proud to continue doing that," he said.

"It does sadden me to think that they could possibly take our family home which is really the only thing we have left, other than memories, of our family.
