This is what actually existing "dignity in dying" looks like if euthanasia enthusiasts had their way.

NHS doctor and campaigner @drbobgill tells the Canary why assisted s*icide legislation currently making its way through the House of Lords is such a danger to chronically ill, disabled, and poor people and how Canada shows just how toxic it is. Labour wants us dead. Simple as.

One of the particularly egregious things about this bill… Imagine if you’re a parent finding out your 18 year old had an assisted death and you weren’t even notified beforehand. It’s the stuff of nightmares.

I wonder if saying only doctors should work on doctors rotas will get any less controversial or “unkind” in 2026? 🤷‍♂️ And to patients, if you’re in any doubt as to who’s treating you please ask “what is your base qualification?” Anything other than a very straight answer is a 🚩

This confirms our worst fears. Labour want to divert taxpayers money from our public services to pay for their mandatory Digital ID scheme. The Lib Dems fought against Labour’s ID plans before and won, and we can do it again.

It might sound almost progressive to say: no barriers to assisted dying for the poor! Isn't equality wonderful! But what it means is lots of ill, impoverished people being helped to kill themselves by doctors in future, not because of the illness but because of the poverty.

The NHS is increasingly using Advanced Clinical Practitioners (ACPs) in roles that were historically performed by doctors. This is doctor substitution, not simple task delegation. Shall we look at some comparisons? This argument concerns system design and role substitution, not

I think you have a different view of the assisted dying debate if you have ever quietly wondered if the system will one day leave you without support to get out of bed, or if the person caring for you will become abusive And a lot of the people with opinions have not

Kim Leadbeater has consistently said the safeguards are the strongest in the world. This is misleading. Here are 15 safeguards present in other jurisdictions but omitted here:

“A MORAL & PRACTICAL DISGRACE!” Quoting the Hospice UK CEO, Baroness @Fox_Claire sums up how awful it would be to permit assisted suicide for people whose pain could be relieved. This is why legalising assisted suicide without fixing palliative care would be deeply irresponsible.

🏆BRAVO for Lord Shinkwin! Speaking remotely to peers, Lord Shinkwin masterfully points out that the assisted suicide Bill has already received “unprecedented” debate time & the reason why this has been necessary is because it’s a bad Bill that would endanger vulnerable people.

@UKLabour @Keir_Starmer @RachelReevesMP @stephenctimms @lisanandy @patmcfaddenmp @TorstenBell @SKinnock @LucyMPowell @wesstreeting @DWPgovuk @bphillipsonMP Why do you hate disabled people?? #REDTORIES

A parliamentary committee has called out the delays disabled people face applying for PIP and say the DWP is pushing people into poverty

Still can't quite get over being called 'vengeful' and 'vexatious' by #DWP for asking for an unredacted email that could reveal details about the department's links with hundreds, and probably thousands, of deaths over the last 15 years. #DeathsByWelfare https://t.co/a48HcoP1Bi

NHS England is rolling out software to run our health records from Palantir – a US spy-tech firm that has supported mass deportation in the US and enabled genocide in Gaza. Say No to Palantir in the NHS ⬇️ https://t.co/JGcobrFyzb

If anyone had any lingering doubts about the need for a dedicated minister for disabled people - based outside the #DWP - this DNS story from last month surely banishes them for good: https://t.co/fuF4jM09OA

England hospitals warned end-of-life care crisis threatening treatment. Hospices struggling to find places for patients who need end-of-life care. Hospices funded by charity. Lack of planning and investment inflicting misery. https://t.co/YnFwsDRiqn

In October alone, 54,000 patients waited more than 12 hours on a trolley in A&E corridors. Yet at the very same time, the NHS is turning away around 13 fully qualified doctors for every single A&E training job. The reason is simple. The Government has capped specialty training

The govs obession with benefit fraud, the default policy of treating claiments like criminals, with this govs increasing emphasis & far reaching powers, this will get worse.

As Christmas approaches, I reflect on my word of the year: pleonexia — an ancient Greek term describing the insatiable desire to take more than your fair share, even when it harms others. Once you understand pleonexia, you start to see it everywhere: in big tech, in bond
