When it is in the financial interest of the government to kill you and take your stuff it’s lights out.

I’m not interested in having a murderer as a doctor.

Pass.

What about all the brain-damaged “refugees” sneaking into England?

Dear God. My MIL is in a UK nursing home suffering from a major stroke. Lost my FIL to the NHS as well. This is beyond frightening.

So sorry. That sounds awful. We in America need to be alert but I’m afraid some states are already moving in a Euthanasia direction I’m afraid. It’s only the natural course following legalization of abortion among other things... :(

Nutrition and hydration are NOT "medication." They are "Ordinary Care." Everybody needs it and everybody, young or old, strong or weak, will die if nutrition and hydration are deliberately withdrawn.

This is not "natural death." These people are not passing away naturally from an underlying disease process. They are dying from intentional starvation/dehydration.

This decision to make the patient die via hunger and thirst is not because the doctor/bureaucrats think that nutrition is futile and will not keep the patient alive. They're afraid that itwill keep the patient alive. They're not afraid he'll die. They're afraid he'll live.

The fact that the patient is presently successfully getting what he needs from, say, a NG tube has nothing to do with it. A NG tube is not high-tech, it's no more "unnatural" than a sippy cup or a straw.

The most galling thing is the idea that starving to death is in the patient's "best interest."

Nobody is healthier dead.

We could use that law here in the U.S. And then, use it to remove food and drinks from brain-damaged liberals and socialists.

It would be in my financial interest to withhold food and fluids from politicians.

Supreme Court rules that doctors can remove food and fluids from brain-damaged...

Should doctors be able to withdraw food and fluids from severely brain-damaged people [...]

This is English?!

How much food and fluids do brain-damaged people contain? Is it really worth extracting the food and fluids from their bodies? Are the food and fluids removed from the people then re-sold, or what? And who would really want to eat the food or drink the fluids pumped out of the body of a brain-dead person?

This article repeatedly refers to "removing food and fluids from brain-damaged people" - not "taking brain-damaged people off of food and fluids," and not "denying" them food, or "discontinuing" intubation.

What is happening to the English language?

Regards,

Why pay Londonistan doctors to kill you when the neighborhood muzzies will do it for free and much quicker but a lot more bloody. Not Great but Late Britain.
