What an astonishingly inappropriate and misjudged farewell speech. The Bishop of London’s clear discomfort is surely felt across the church.

I would be dead at 25 if assisted suicide had been on the table.

Multiple suicide attempts. Hospitalizations. Residential treatment.

Instead, I’m turning 38 this month. I have a husband I love, a job I love, and a life I love today.

My life had value.

I am deeply concerned to hear that the East Dulwich Post Office on Lordship Lane is potentially being considered for closure. I alongside your local councillors from Goose Green and Dulwich Hill have written to Post Office to raise concerns, and have asked to meet with them.

#Suicideprevention v #AssistedDying

The debate hasn’t acknowledged enough the line AD crosses on society’s fundamental values: preserving life, protecting those most vulnerable.

Where does that leave those facing other kinds of despair? Where does it leave mental health care?

[louis appleby @ProfLAppleby]

Last week we saw a new Mental Health Bill whose main purpose is to prevent suicide.

Now we have the Assisted Dying Bill, to help people - in defined circumstances - take their own lives.

The NHS will pay the King’s duchy £11m over 15 years to rent a warehouse for ambulances...it is being charged 67% more than the previous tenants paid.

My daughter has just booked two train journeys.

Paris to Berlin - €49.99
London to Manchester - €324.36

How does that possibly make sense?

First ever budget delivered by a female chancellor, my sister @RachelReevesMP ❤️

[Dr Rachel Clarke @doctor_oxford]

Can we honestly pretend no-one here would resort to AD because lack of palliative, NHS & social care means their life isn’t worth living?

If we really care about dying people, why aren’t we shouting from the rooftops about the appalling underfunding of palliative care?

"Rattlesnakes" de Lloyd Cole & The Commotions paraissait donc ce jour il y a 40 ans.
Difficile de choisir une des 10 perles scintillantes que contient cet album.
Celle-ci est déjà entrée dans la postérité.
