Default Isle of Man Parliament setting up Assisted Dying by 2027

[The right for terminally ill people on the
Isle of Man to be helped to die could
be a step closer after crucial votes in
its parliament on Tuesday.

Members will debate whether lethal drugs
should be self-administered or given
to those eligible by doctors.

The island could become the first part of
the British Isles to pass assisted-dying legislation.

If royal assent is received next year,
its first assisted death could come as soon as 2027.]


Live on
Times Radio
first part has past.

The direction of travel on this issue is scary

Futurama might have called it right thinking we'll end up having suicide booths on street corners

Are you not sure on it MTVN.

I have decided I couldn't support it.
It's a really heart wrenching one I know.
However if I had a vote on it, at this point I couldn't.

I'm.jusy not sure the right or secure checks could be in place and not got round on some cases.

I do listen to to those with more made up minds but I just feel worried about this.
