There is no reason why 29 year old Zoraya Ter Beek's life should come to an end soon.

Thanks to the availability of Assisted Suicide/Euthanasia, it will likely end in the next few weeks.

'People suffering from mental ill-health, autism or learning difficulties are being encouraged to take their own lives'

Ireland would be wise not to follow this path

If this were option in the UK, I'd have done it.

And I wouldn't have got to meet my heroes, or learn what it is like to be loved, or have my first kiss, or swim in the ocean for the first time since I was a kid, or graduate from my dream university.

Euthanasia/Assisted Suicide actually reduces the autonomy and choice of people experiencing illness and vulnerability.

'What Canada demonstrates is that assisted dying is simply making it easier to terminate life in response to suffering that is in part socially mediated'

Vulnerable people deserve assistance in living, not Euthanasia/Assisted Suicide

For those who think that the tide in favour of and is relentless: Between 1994 and 2020, there were 284 proposals in more than 43 states and territories. Of those, 10 were successful. No state has legalized it in the past 2yrs.

« Her only known diagnoses described in court earlier this month are autism and ADHD »

How many red flags need to wave to show that legalising euthanasia, assisted suicide & assisted dying, while it may support the autonomy of some causes significant societal harm?

The Government should not introduce legislation for assisted dying. The case has not been established, whereas the case against any change is overwhelming.

Speaking on the Tommy Marren show.

'Assisted dying' legislation is due to be lodged at Holyrood this week. If the law changes, Scots will opt for a state-assisted death because they lack the support necessary to live. Safeguards will fail. And there will be pressure to expand. I'd urge MSPs to say no.

Canada makes it clear, Euthanasia and Assisted Suicide cannot be contained or limited

Ireland must not follow the same path
