Truly enlightened societies would give everyone the legal right to assisted living before the legal right to assisted dying

Tonight I ask each and every MP to ask what a compassionate society is. Choice to a few to risk many. Progress can’t be saying we are a burden, slowing you down.

Please have a read through the bill yourself. There is no safeguards against coercion or burden. Doctors can’t assess for coercion.

Sam - I’m trying to lower the temperature. I have written in the telegraph, times. Guardian, BMJ, economist and many other of all persuasions and politics. This is not a political issue. Rather it is a danger to all people

I’m trying to protect people. How many incorrect deaths are acceptable for your ‘right’ to assisted dying?

It is the doctors judgment to suggest you might benefit from death? The bill is about having a preemptive death. If a doctor suggests a course of action most listen to it. Yet it is illegal for me to refuse onward referral if you ask me. It’s a one way street. I haven’t misconstrued anything.

The bill is really not comprehensive - in no exaggerated terms there are zero safeguards regarding ‘feeling a burden’ or ‘coercion’

Please read the bill- copied below 4(2) i can ‘suggest’ it and 4(4) ‘must’ effective onward referral.
