In this crazy world, good to know there are some like minded folk who agree we need to challenge the injustices we see in the UK and around the world.

You have to self administer the dose, so those who want to live would simply never take it. It's that simple. This is for people in agony in the last days of their life. Disability is not a terminal illness. Those with terminal illnesses who want palliative care instead would get it.

It's for terminal illnesses only. Not disabilities. It would be ILLEGAL under the current proposed bill to give assisted dying to a disabled person with no terminal illness/ less than 6 months to live, so it could not be sanctioned by a judge and the 2 doctors.

Police investigate tractor that created ‘devastating’ wave in flooded UK town

Thankfully the proposed bill would instantly rule this nonsense out as: they don't have a terminal illness, or have less than 6 months to live, they wouldn't get a judge, and two doctors to approve their assisted death, and thry wouldn't want to administer their own lethal dose of medication.

Billionaires making $1,000,000 a minute have convinced idiots making $20 an hour, that immigrants making $7 an hour are the reason their wages are so low. But if you're not an idiot you know its the billionaires blatant robbery that keeps your wages so low.

The Government’s own shocking data shows a staggering 97% of new patients who try to get an NHS appointment fail to get one - NHS dentistry for new patients has effectively ceased to exist. Why are we not talking about this?

A very thoughtful interview with the wonderful Kim Leadbetter. @lewisgoodall.com put it so eloquently, and I agree - whatever your political views & your own thoughts about assisted dying, we need more people like Kim in politics - compassionate, listening, balanced. Thank you Lewis & co.

We took six bags of toys we no longer play with down to the charity shop this morning - I read somewhere that generally people have a new year clear out but families looking for Xmas presents need stuff before then. Makes sense - so spent yesterday sorting through our stuff

I'm working class and trust me, I know a lot of people who believed the crap about Corbyn, Brexit and now 'Poor Farmers'. It keeps happening. Without the working class vote you wouldn't get in, so based on who we've elected in the last 50 years I'd say the majority are pretty brainwashed.

We know that, we've had way too many Eton Mess farces as leaders. I agree, they're overrepresented in politics and media... but that's down to the UK class system reinforcing that a certain accent/education makes someone 'smarter'. We all know this is nonsense...but the average Joe votes for that.

🚨 NEW: A new poll shows that 65% of Brits support assisted dying ahead of the upcoming Private Members Bill www.thetimes.com/uk/politics/...

Have you blocked the “Politlcs UK” account yet? Unknown to most, they’re a Tory engagement farm, subtly pushing a narrative. But pretending to be an impartial news source. Let’s nip them in the bud, and not give them the amplification they need. Share this, and BLOCK. The evidence..

Back on the other place 'call a general election now' is trending, promoted by the same people who responded to calls for a second Brexit referendum by saying "it was the will of the people, move on".

#COP29 ends in betrayal of the Global South. Failure of wealthier countries to deliver sufficient finance shows yet again the sickening injustice & inequality at the heart of this process. Solidarity with all who fought for better - the fight continues www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Fascinating thread from @tomcalver.bsky.social. Public perception of criminal sentencing remains wholly out of kilter with reality. We need politicians and elements of the media to start treating the public as adults, and debating the topic on facts instead of lazy and hysterical misinformation.

Your Drs are being stolen from you. Across the NHS, a role taught 2 years of "PA studies” is substituting for Drs trained for 10 to 15 years. This is about cutting training and safety. It is not about care.
