Would assisted suicides also be performed in corridors? Presumably, until they had saved enough money to render the question academic.
The Leader of the Opposition wants to means test the triple lock on what was still one of the lowest pensions in the developed world, while the Pensions Minister wants to break that lock altogether. Is the alternative to be put down in a corridor, as would not happen to a dog?
Since 1967, the NHS has provided state-funded abortions so it providing state-funded “suicide” will be the moment it has collapsed under the weight of its own internal contradictions. A state funded healthcare system always ultimately meant giving the state power over life and death. Now we see what that means.
ReplyDeleteThere is no NHS in Ireland, which now has a very liberal abortion law indeed. There has never been one in the United States, including throughout the Roe v. Wade years. But there was an NHS in Great Britain for 19 years before the 1967 Abortion Act, and in Northern Ireland for 71 years until a Conservative Government imposed abortion there against the will of some of the NHS's staunchest supporters. NHS privatisation in England has always been a defining cause of politicians who were very strongly pro-abortion.
DeleteDon't confuse them with facts, Mr. L.
DeleteThe facts do not confuse them. They should, but they do not.
