“Medical assistance in dying” can quickly become “government REQUIREMENT to die”, when hospital budgets are tight.

The present government’s policy is death to the nation as a whole so why not death to individual citizens.

Meanwhile, the petition continues to sit at around 2.8 million.

Don’t know every freedom-loving UK resident hasn’t put his or her John Hancock to that...
