Some progress, finally.

Edit: for the benefit of the tinfoil hat wearers, assisted dying is not the same as euthanasia.

    It will be eventually, if we’re not careful. The capitalists are gradually trying to normalise it.

      So the slippery slope fallacy, got it.

      “If we allow terminally ill the choice to die painlessly and with dignity, we’re actually welcoming doctors telling anybody with any ailment to kill themselves” is a wild take.

      You can apply the same fallacy to practically any law. It’s absurd.

      “They’ve introduced an age of consent?? This is a slippery slope! Soon the government will prevent all reproduction!1”

      It’s not possible for that to happen in the UK without a further bill in Parliament. I believe in Canada the law has changed as a result of decisions by the courts.
