There are various concerns regarding euthanasia, including the potential for abuse, coercion and misdiagnosis in determining patient eligibility. Instances where people were misdiagnosed with terminal illnesses, only to later discover that they had benign conditions are not difficult to find.

The following essay is taken, with permission, from Jack King’s book `Why they want to kill us’, with thanks to Dr. King. No one in politics or the media will debate euthanasia. As with covid, the truth is being suppressed. No one else will publish the arguments outlined in Dr. King’s book.
1) There is no known way of killing people in a peaceful, painless and dignified way.
2) In whichever country a law is passed legalising euthanasia, the parameters are likely to be extended quite soon afterwards. So, for example, if a law is passed legalising the killing of patients at the very end of their lives, the law will be extended to cover patients who are not terminally ill. And then the law will be extended to cover the mentally ill and to include children.
3) There is evidence that patients who are not ready to die will be bullied into accepting euthanasia.
4) The poor and those requiring benefit payments and State support will probably be bullied or blackmailed into accepting euthanasia.
5) Relatives who want to benefit from an elderly person’s estate will arrange euthanasia for mercenary reasons.
6) Hospitals which want to free up beds will feel free to kill patients.
7) There is a risk, too, that people who arrive at a hospital in an ambulance, having been given a powerful painkiller or tranquilliser, will be invited straightaway to accept a doctor-assisted suicide. And, because they are confused and frightened, they will accept the offer without properly understanding the consequences. Doctors involved in patient care should never, ever be involved in promoting, selling or even discussing euthanasia.
8) Some advocates of euthanasia claim that candidates for suicide must have a fatal illness. And some euthanasia programmes begin by saying that a patient must be expected to be dead within six months. Campaigners say that this excludes patients who might live for years. They’re wrong, of course. They’re wrong because prognoses are subjective and they are wrong more often than they are right. I could fill London with people who have been told to prepare themselves for death but who have lived for many years. The advocates for euthanasia assume that it is possible to decide that an illness is fatal. Anyone (doctor or nurse) who announces that an illness is fatal is a fool. I doubt if I am alone in having seen patients who have been told that they were incurable, recover and enjoy long lives – not uncommonly outliving the physician who had told them they were dying. Diagnostic errors are nowhere near as rare as doctors would like to imagine. Dr. Vernon Coleman has described how he was wrongly diagnosed with kidney cancer and given six months to live. That was nearly 40 years ago. In fact, the radiologists who had made the diagnosis were wrong. Politicians seem to assume that it is possible to predict when a patient is going to die. It isn’t. Very occasionally, a patient will conveniently die as predicted but this, I suspect, is more due to the voodoo or negative placebo factor than due to any brilliance on the part of the forecaster. Doctors, like witch doctors, can have a powerful influence on the outcome of an illness if they give a patient a firm and professional-sounding prognosis. In other words, if a doctor says to a patient: “You will be dead in six months” there is a chance that the patient will be dead in six months because the doctor said so. It is rare for patients to die before a forecasting doctor suggests but it is common for patients to live considerably longer. Selecting a patient as suitable for euthanasia on the basis of a prognosis is always dangerous and unjustifiable. Examples of mistaken diagnoses and erroneous prognoses are not difficult to find.
A 45-year-old mother of two was told that she had an inoperable tumour on her liver. With no family present, she was told that she had between two months and two years to live. (How any doctor can offer such a bizarrely wide prognosis is difficult to understand.) In fact, she had a benign liver tumour. She was not told of the error for a month. It was a year before the woman had recovered from the trauma of the mistaken diagnosis. But what if she had been persuaded to accept euthanasia? Another woman who was told that she had terminal cancer was found to be suffering from sarcoidosis. Once again, a wrong diagnosis had been made and this time the patient was treated with toxic chemotherapy and subjected to frequent CT scans and medical reviews. The mistaken diagnosis was maintained for four years. A third woman who had a history of breast cancer was told that the cancer had returned and had spread to her lungs. She underwent treatment, including radiotherapy. After five years of believing that she could die at any moment, the woman was told that the hospital had made a mistake and that she actually had bronchiectasis.
A 51-year-old man was told that he had advanced amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). A second doctor agreed with the diagnosis which had been made on the basis of a 10-minute examination. The man was told that he would never return to work and would soon be unable to walk. He was contacted by a therapist regarding medically assisted death and began to plan music for his funeral. The man closed his business and told his friends and family the terrible news. He was told that he would not live until the following Christmas. Eventually, the man saw a third doctor who told him that he had been misdiagnosed and actually had neuropathy caused by his diabetes.
A 65-year-old man was diagnosed with Motor Neurone Disease and told that he was terminally ill with just six months to live. He was told to choose a hospice. He later found that his symptoms were actually caused by the statins he was taking. When he’d been told he was terminally ill, he stopped the statins and his symptoms disappeared.
These case histories are by no means unusual. In countries where assisted killing is in place there will, without doubt, be instances where misdiagnosed patients will choose euthanasia and will die quite unnecessarily. One of the main objections to capital punishment (a process which often takes many years and repeated examinations of the evidence) is the fear that a mistake will be made and an innocent person will be killed. The same objection can and should be raised about medically assisted dying.
Finally, to summarise, you should oppose euthanasia if:
- You are over 60 years of age or hope or expect to be over 60 years of age one day.
- You ever feel glum or down in the dumps, upset, worried, fearful or tired of life.
- You are forgetful or absent-minded.
- You have any health problem (diabetes, arthritis, breathing troubles, heart problems, poor vision, poor hearing or incontinence to name but a small selection).
All of those problems and situations could enable doctors and nurses to kill you for your “own comfort” and to do so without asking your permission.
You can make a difference and help stop the horror of doctor-assisted suicide by sharing the truth. Make sure everyone you know reads this book to understand what is happening to us all. Buy copies of this book to send to MPs, newspapers, radio presenters, etc. I have bought and distributed scores of Jack King’s book.

After witnessing too many people including my parents suffer a bad death, I pray euthanasia becomes law in all countries. As a healthcare practitioner I watched people die. As a daughter I watched my mother put down by the American “hospice care” system. It was brutal and lasted nearly three days. No, euthanasia is used on animals. It is humane, and it is much kinder than the horrific end of life protocols now in place.
Totally agree with you.
As a 70 year old, I can finally feel at peace if Euthanasia is in place.
In January, 2022, I believe my fit, healthy, active 76 year old husband, who happened to have easily managed asthma, was murdered by the NHS when he had the misfortune to be admitted to hospital during the Covid fiasco. He had a reaction which caused an asthma attack. I repeatedly told them he had asthma, but they insisted he had Covid and therefore refused to treat him for asthma. The only thing they were concerned about was whether he had been jabbed (he hadn’t and wouldn’t be). Their attitude suggested that this was something he ought to be punished for, because if he had, he wouldn’t now be wasting their time. He had been in hospital just over 12 hours when they rang me to say that a nurse had gone in to his room and “found he wasn’t breathing”. I suspect she had gone in to check on whether the NICE protocol to administer Midazolam had worked, and found that it had.
I am so sorry 😔
for the terminally ill its needed.
They are already illegally euthanising people in hospital and have been doing it for years, although it has increased exponentially since covid. THIS legislation is all about bringing in the Canadian model, where people are offered the opportunity to save the state money because caring for them is expensive. And not just older people either. They are currently destroying the social care system by deliberately under-funding it every year and people are already dying as a result. Then they will magically bring this law in, ‘just for terminally ill people who make the choice’ but it will then ALSO be offered to people, including young people, who are depressed – or who need expensive or ongoing help. Granny needs a stairlift and can’t buy her own? Would she like euthanasia, it’s cheaper.. This is already happening in Canada.
They ask all patients if they want to be resuscitated after a certain age, they asked my mother, who needed a replacement hip joint but otherwise in good health until the hospital got hold of her by giving a general anaesthetic when we had said no – as she was 92 and it would weaken her heart, they consented to doing her op by epidural, but then ignored this and gave a general anaesthetic anyway not informing me, ignoring the power of attorney she had placed giving me power of attorney to over see her health..After the op they left her in an unheated side room, not washing or feeding her, sitting her in an uncomfortable chair on her own cold and in pain.. with nurses just outside her room chatting and oblivious to her needs.. I can’t believe people who have chosen nursing as their chosen profession can be so cruel.. I told them that and I went in daily to feed her, and wash her taking her warm blankets. Although I was told I was out of visiting times, my answer was pretty curt and I went to check up on her at any time.. . Yes the op weakened her heart and she died 3 weeks later.. So how many others have their lives cut short.. It is a deliberate act…
God bless. There are good nurses however, despite what you went through. My mother was one of them.
I used to be more pro euthanasia but considering the push for depopulation this will inevitably become legalised murder. I sympathise with those suffering but this is so thinly veiled I’m amazed how much BS people will swallow.
I saw Tucker Carleson interviewing a Canadian lady about this. It was a real eye opener. I’m sure if anyone saw that, they would oppose “Assisted dying”. Sedatives to immobilise and LOOK peaceful, followed by a drug that slowly “drowns” you. No thanks.
WOW, hope they start to research for a more painless method. How about just overdose on pain relief drug ?
I am going to be well over hundred years old out of spite.
I absolutely oppose euthanasia. There are few controls, and it is governed largely by elitist depopulation hysterics. They killed babies first, now they kill whoever is willing. Next, they will murder anyone over 65, then 55, then 45, until they have a tiny but young and nubile population of malleable slaves.
As an old person, my only wish is for a painless and peaceful death process.
Planning to skip the whole hospital massive poking and jabbing scene all together.
It’s all done in lockstep, each country or government will lead on an issue and the rest follow in turn . It’s like they all have to commit to be apart of the genocide. Epstein was doing this to individuals.
Dying is the last experience of life. If someone wants to off them self it’s up to them. But we don’t need to make the thing into a “law” or political issue since those things always gets misused.
Probably one of the most important experiences in one’s spiritual journey
Are you all not missing something here? In historic times you all had the right to go to the pharmacy and buy your own laudanum, morphine, whatever. And we could get opium. Doctors were not gods; they sat below the salt at the dinner table.
Would these questions arise if we retained that freedom? No. If I want to have a painless suicide, I now (or my friend/ relative) have to go to some all-powerful doctor and convince him/her to give me the stuff.
One can argue the morality of suicide, but I’d still call it a fundamental right.
Euthanasia of unconscious patients is a separate debate, but I see little merit in a complete ban, and most cases are done by withholding life support.
