Right to die law (by james85)

As the House of Lords debates the right to die, we want to know what you make of Lord Falconer’s bill. Despite the Daily Mail’s outrage, the bill is no where near as radical as you might think. In essence, it would allow doctors in England and Wales to give people with less than six months to live drugs that will see them off. But doctors will be banned from actually administering the dose - only the patient will be allowed to do that. Is that the right balance?

When an animal is dying, we will put it down so it won't suffer. With people, we do everything we can to prolong suffering.
