After a summer of drip-feeding cruelty into the public psyche, Farage's hateful, bigoted rhetoric is seeping outwards - soon we will all feel it. Now is the time to resist and push back:

I really hope legalising assisted dying doesn't come at the cost of improving palliative care. We need both. It's a travesty that hospices are run as charities and not government funded. Everyone deserves to die with dignity and comfort - it is possible and necessary
