    Cannot wait to hear about the Foz News reaction to this.

    One of the parts that breaks my heart is that if assisted suicide is so popular now that it’s legal, how many people suffered for how long when it wasn’t?

      BBC is basically pandering to the Daily Mail crowd. They recently felt that the Assisted Dying Bill passing the initial stages of parliamentary process in the UK meant that it was now legal to Shipman the conservative voting block.

      It’s not law yet. Just a proposal, but apparently nobody understands that.

        Jesus fuck there is some ghoulish shit in there! Just withhold water as someone dies slow so as to “do no harm” ? Ugh.

        Thanks for sharing.
