@AJogee Parliament needs to set up an investigation into the sinister and wealthy lobby group, DiD, backing Labour MPs like Leadbeater and now Edwards. This lobby group appears to have its claws into several MPs.
Unhealthy.
@AJogee So people like me with so much severe ill health I will be the right person for euthanasia. Sick fucking party, as for the sick bitch who first put it forward perhaps she can try it first.
@AJogee When 'mercy' killing the poor and the lonely instead of helping them is your passion, I don't think such logic enters into it. This absolutely needs a royal commission but here they go resubmitting the same beermat they scribbled their plans onto originally.
@AJogee Feels as if Dignity in Dying treats Parliament with contempt: bringing back their old, dirty washing - no MP amendments permitted (!) - and expecting MPs to blithely nod it through
@AJogee@CNKAlliance Why have people learnt nothing from 1930's Germany? Assisted Dying, or as the Nazi's called it, "Gnadentod," or merci death was the precursor to the holocaust.
@AJogee Disappointing that Lauren Edwards MP wants to replay an unsafe assisted dying bill over asking for universal access to safe, high-quality palliative and end-of-life care, free at the point of need, an end to non-consensual DNARs plus appointment of a Palliative Care Commissioner.

We have debated this deeply divisive and flawed Bill for over a year and nothing has changed nothing.
This Bill will hand sweeping, unchecked powers over life and death and our NHS to future governments..whoever they are.
Insane stuff.
The rest of the country isn’t grateful, Claire. The HoL did their jobs and you’re circumventing the law. All to give the government a cheaper option than palliative care. And no, the country doesn’t support this bill. Only old polls conducted by Dignity in Dying (the ones who poured millions into getting this done for the government) actually suggest that.
A deeply dangerous bill that intends to remove safeguards in the coming years once it’s through the door is being forced AGAIN and refuses to ensure safeguarding.
Anyone who gives a damn about people being able to make a decision on AD without coercion being a factor, will oppose this bill.
Unfortunately, many will still back this bill because it’s the cheaper solution.
They would rather let you, your loved ones suffer to the point of asking for AD rather than fund proper palliative care. That’s already coercion. It’s also cheaper to people being on benefits. In a country that let a mass disabling virus let rip - this is a cost saving bill.
But we knew this was the agenda since the committee stage when we first heard them vote away safeguards for non terminal disabilities. No one needs AD for autism, Down’s syndrome, anorexia or diabetes. But that’s what they voted on. Any safeguards in place to get this bill through the door is smoke and mirrors to allow state sanctioned death via the back door.
It must fail. This bill is completely unsafe for all. Even those they’re hiding this appalling bill behind. They’re using these terminally ill people to get this through. They do not care what happens with them at all.
@Nihilarity@TalkThatTalk_K What's your view on the stripping of safeguards for non-terminal cases? Extremely vulnerable people being coerced onto an admisistrative AD pathway despite not qualifying under the terms of the original Bill draft?
No it doesn’t need to pass.
Also, proper quality palliative care would stop people suffering. That’s what it’s designed to do. Except it’s not cheap compared to just killing people off.
There is no paranoia in that post.
I’ve actually been following this and watching the stages streamed live because that’s my role. That’s conveniently why you refuse to acknowledge points made in my post. You can’t just skip over “and they want to remove safeguards for non terminal disabilities” 🤦🏼♀️
I pioneered a successful skin clinic & independent hospital business, taught others, and built a life of independence, only to have a system of greed, clinical cover-ups, and legal malpractice tear it all away, thrusting my family into poverty and leaving me to face the cruelty of being turned away from A&E’s when critically ill the further lied to by a mesh removal surgeon and dropped by a solicitor struck off for deplorable conduct - my journey is the journey of tens of thousands of mesh injured women that deserve #redress
