It's way way off becoming a reality yet

It's about time though

Keeping someone alive who is in absolute misery against their will is cruel

How f**king dare politicians say to these people - nope, we're gonna hook you up to machines and pump you full of chemicals and you're just going to grin and bare it

Can we start with you?

F**k off prick!

How are you still here?

Refusing to let the bastards grind him down, I imagine.

By constantly effin' and blindin' - how pleasant, making for such a welcoming forum.

Let's all calm down and cease the name-calling please. The personal aggression is not called for, nor pleasant to read.

We are all calm and collected Aaron, it's lofthouse who has lost the plot and is unable to string a few words together without profanities and/or uncalled for nasty posts aimed at someone

A very good - and particularly perceptive - article from the Telegraph today:

A pattern has emerged when it comes to what Sir Keir Starmer does and doesn't know about the organisations he is heading.

As director of public prosecutions, Sir Keir always seemed to be kept in the dark whenever his senior staff were handling a particularly hot potato.

He was never told about investigations into Jimmy Savile or Mohamed Fayed, for example. New evidence that came to light about Andrew Malkinson, wrongly convicted of rape, "never crossed his desk", we are told. He was "not aware" that the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) was wrongly prosecuting postmasters under his watch.

Now it turns out that his knack of being ignorant of important information has followed him into politics.

When Louise Haigh was appointed by him as Transport Secretary, she did not disclose the full truth about her previous criminal conviction, Downing Street sources have said. Once again, Sir Keir is telling us that he can't be blamed for what happens within an organisation he heads - in this case the Government - because he wasn't provided with crucial information.

Sir Keir might feel he has been let down by the people around him failing to give him the information he needs, or he may argue that he cannot know what everyone in a large organisation such as the CPS or the Government is up to.

But there is a second element to the pattern of his career: Sir Keir as the hero of the hour whenever there is a triumph to be claimed.

According to his official biography on the Labour Party website, Sir Keir is the man who oversaw the first ever UK prosecution of al-Qaeda terrorists; secured the successful retrial of terrorists involved in a suicide bombing plot; prosecuted MPs for fiddling their expenses and brought the killers of Stephen Lawrence to justice.

Lest there be any doubt about his ability to get involved in case work or remember things that happened years ago, Sir Keir said this week that when it came to assisted dying, he "looked at every single case for five years that was ever investigated".

As Oscar Wilde might have said, to be unaware of one scandal brewing under one's nose might be regarded as misfortune, but to be unaware of several starts to look like carelessness.

Yeah and they are not wrong. Starmer's learned from Blind Spot Wenger, former coach of the club he refuses to give up his free tickets for.

Actually I posted a comment on the news - assisted dying

Chappers then replied to this by basically wishing I had a terminal illness and that I should be the first to die

Yet I am the one in the wrong?

That's why I told him to f**k off

Because he's a moron

See?

Good.

And why are you chipping in anyway ? This has got sod all to do with you - you're just siding with your little bum chum as usual- he has got a mind of his own (just about)

Nobody asked your opinion you silly old duffer

(Don't get mad at me just because Keir stopped giving you handouts to pay your heating bills 😆)

Pathetic, but no problem, I'll just report you again and maybe we will be shot of you for good

At least we know who's doing all the reporting now.

So? I'm reporting him now - Oh Wow! What a revelation that is!! Or are you implying I do ALL the reporting on this forum? You need to wind your neck in

What a lovely person you are, and three LOLs, which you can't seem to live without - there's nothing more demeaning than someone laughing at their own UNFUNNY "jokes"

And the disgusting name-calling.
Arguments and disagreements are part and parcel of a forum but one poster continually does it.
A brave keyboard warrior.
