Yes it should be made legal but of course it has to come with very strict guidlines and used in a tiny minority of people at the end of their lives that have no prospect other than agonising pain,certain death and no prospect of any quality of life left.

Maybe this proposition didnt cover enough bases to make it feasible but it certainly wasnt some easy out for anybody that wanted it. I hope they go back to the drawing board and come up with a viable solution because there is no doubt that this would be a much better,respectable and humane option for some people.

why do you ignore the fact 1000s , tens of thousands are already neglected or abused in nhs hospitals already, causing tens of thousands of avoidable premature deaths, especially on weekends....25 000 died from undiagnosed blood clots per year in uk hospitals...why aren't you saying anything about that? what about the tens of thousands of additional deaths and the mass of abuses and growth of suicide culture in the countries where assisted suicide has been legalised? where is your compassion for these tens of thousands of neglected / abused people who have died because of this insane legislation?
I ask this of all people who want to legalise assisted suicide? where is your compassion for the mass of people neglected or abused?
