Wow, unexpected. Finally some boldness to be humane about end-of-life situations.

I just hope it comes with sensible checks and balances.

As an American, it is truly appalling to see MAGA Republicans on social media try to dig their nose into UK politics now. Many British were in favor of this bill, and MAGA Republicans are now calling the country satanic. I applaud the bill and hope it helps those who need it.

This is an amazing change. I've seen way too many people suffering in a way that before my previous job, I couldn't have even begun to imagine. People in agony begging to die but being forced to live.

People that would get a few hours of interrupted sleep a day, and then spend 20 hours of the day awake living in excruciating pain, begging us to covertly put them out of their misery.

Setting the moral discussion aside. I think Starmer will be worried that this will define his first term and absorb his ministers’ bandwidth as it is being implemented. He would have wanted to focus on the economy and his plans for “rebuilding” but that will get less oxygen in the media now.

Wait, you can get assisted death after losing an emotional debate? Or can the winner also partake?

Welcomed but let's see how this progresses over the next two years before it becomes law.
