Kim Leadbeater’s euthanasia bill, officially known as the Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill, will have its Third Reading in the House of Commons tomorrow. 

On the eve of the vote, the Royal College of Physicians has stated it does not support the Bill.  A group of leading social care organisations also raised serious concerns. These statements follow the withdrawal of support for the Bill by the Royal College of Psychiatrists.

The “death by doctor” bill is becoming the “death by politician” bill.

Editor’s note: Since originally publishing our article, the Senior media manager at the Royal College of Physicians has been in contact with The Exposé to highlight that our article title is misleading: The RCP’s position on assisted dying remains neutral, its concerns relate to the Bill only.  We have published more information in a subsequent article, please read RCP’s clarification HERE.

Earlier today, The Standard reported that another leading medical body has raised concerns about the risks of the euthanasia Bill “failing to protect vulnerable patients,” on the eve of its return to Parliament.  The Royal College of Physicians (“RCP”) said it believes there are “concerning deficiencies” with the proposed legislation as it stands.

The RCP said that despite changes to the Bill in recent months which supporters argue have strengthened it, the college believes “there currently remain deficiencies that would need addressing to achieve adequate protection of patients and professionals.”

Its statement follows one earlier this week from the Royal College of Psychiatrists (“RCPsych”), which said it has “serious concerns” and cannot support the Bill in its current form.

As Sky News noted, “The announcement from the Royal College of Psychiatrists is a blow to supporters of the bill because under an amendment, a psychiatrist would be on the expert panel to assess assisted dying cases.”

Today, a group of leading social care organisations also raised concerns over the proposed euthanasia bill, flagging worries about coercion. A partnership of the country’s leading social care and end-of-life organisations told Sky News of their deep frustration at being excluded from important discussions around the assisted dying debate, describing the proposed change to the law as “unworkable, unaffordable and naïve.”

Earlier this month, the Bishop of London said the government’s impact assessment of the assisted dying bill “makes for chilling reading.”

Bishop Sarah Mullaly said: “The impact assessment of the Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill makes for chilling reading as it highlights particular groups who would be put at risk by a change in the law, including those who are subject to health inequalities, and those vulnerable to domestic abuse.”

On the financial estimates, she said: “It is crude to see these cost savings set out in this way, and it is easy to see how numbers of this nature could contribute to someone feeling that they should pursue an assisted death rather than receive care.”

She reiterated the church’s resolve to oppose “any change in the law that puts the vulnerable at risk rather than working to improve access to desperately needed palliative care services.”

Keir Starmer, who has proved he is incapable of doing right by Britons since taking office, voted for the Bill last year and on the eve of its Third Reading has indicated he remains supportive of the euthanasia bill.

For its second reading, it was voted through by a reasonably narrow margin of 330 MPs in favour to 275 against.  The Bill was passed with a majority of 55, meaning only 28 MPs need to change their minds or abstain from voting for it to fail.

Yesterday, The Telegraph reported that “As the Bill winds its way back to the Commons on 16 May – when all MPs will have the opportunity to propose and vote on further changes – there is a sense that it is on increasingly shaky ground. Critics have raised concerns that key safeguards have been removed from the legislation since the last time it was debated.”

A recent poll conducted by Whitestone Insight on behalf of the campaign group Care Not Killing suggested that more parliamentarians now oppose the Bill than support it, The Telegraph said.

Don’t leave it up to chance; contact your MP tonight and let them know you want them to vote against Death Leadbeater’s euthanasia bill.

While previously it was a hobby culminating in writing articles for Wikipedia (until things made a drastic and undeniable turn in 2020) and a few books for private consumption, since March 2020 I have become a full-time researcher and writer in reaction to the global takeover that came into full view with the introduction of covid-19. For most of my life, I have tried to raise awareness that a small group of people planned to take over the world for their own benefit. There was no way I was going to sit back quietly and simply let them do it once they made their final move.

There’s an aspect of Quantum Physics called “Critical Point Analysis” which states, “In any complex organism, organisation, structure or system, there is a critical point where, with the minimum application of effort, you can create maximum impact on that thing” (slightly paraphrased). When dealing with these pathologised despots like Starmer et al, the below might be a critical point. Note the reference to “moral sense” and “moral freedom”. I originally found it after watching the testimony from Dr Tanya Haj-Hassan at the EU Parliament a few days ago. From Black’s Law Dictionary ….

Black’s Law – Insanity

INSANE. Unsound in mind; of unsound mind; deranged, disordered, or diseased in mind. Violently deranged; mad.

INSANITY. Unsoundness of mind; madness; mental alienation or derangement; a morbid psychic condition resulting from disorder of the brain, whether arising from malformation or defective organisation or morbid processes affecting the brain primarily or diseased states of the general system implicating it secondarily, which involves the intellect, the emotions, the will, and the moral sense, or some of these faculties, and which is characterised especially by their non-development, derangement, or perversion, and is manifested, in most forms, by delusions, incapacity to reason or to judge, or by uncontrollable impulses. In law, such a want of reason, memory, and intelligence as prevents a man from comprehending the nature and consequences of his acts or from distinguishing between right and wrong conduct. Crosswell v. People, 13 Mich. 427, 87 Am.Dec. 774; Johnson v. Insurance Co., 83 Me. 182, 22 A. 107; Frazer v. Frazer, 2 Del.Ch. 263.

CRIMINAL INSANITY. Want of mental capacity and moral freedom to do or abstain from doing any particular act. State v. Schafer, 156 Wash. 240, 286 P. 833, 838.

I really think most of our so-called “global leaders” are clearly definable in the above terms …..

You can download Black’s for free from the net. I’ve got the fifth edition as later editions have twists built into the definitions. I wonder why ….?

Two days ago you ran “The dark art of manufacturing consent”, where those in power use various methods to influence public opinion and shape decisions.

I believe, that some time ago, they started using this dark art to prepare people for assisted suicide.

They told people that a funeral should no longer be a solemn and dignified event that allowed mourners to express their sadness and grief in a way that showed respect for the departed, but it should be a time to “celebrate the life”, wearing black was to be replaced by wearing bright colours and hymns were to be replaced with cheerful songs and lots of laughing, clapping and cheering.

The replacement of mourning with a party atmosphere was intended to change attitudes to death, and with death now being a time for celebration, why not bump off your relatives and have a party because they want to go now.
