I heard RFK Jr. is floating the banning of the polio vaccine so seems like a good time to remind folks that RFK Jr. was vaccinated with this same vaccine & therefore is at no risk of harm himself
Kinda like when he publicly was against the covid vaccine yet privately required his guests to have it🙃

My analysis: Kim Leadbeater was the front woman for this bill.
But her side won because there was quiet and powerful experiment in participatory democracy being undertaken by MPs.
Across the land, hundreds of citizens gathered and told stories and convinced their MPs to vote for change.

The power behind the vote for assisted dying? Ordinary people

Considering arguments that palliative care can ALWAYS relieve pain...
This new (non-peer reviewed) study from OHE concludes that 20 people in the UK die in pain every day, even with the best palliative care.
I’ve had a look at the data / method and I’m not convinced. In my mind it has two big flaws.

An estimated 20 terminally ill people in the UK die in unrelieved pain each day, according to a study by the independent Office of Health Economics (OHE).
According to its research, to be presented to MPs on Tuesday, one in four people receiving palliative care in England have “unmet pain needs”.

The risks of methanol poisoning are in sharp focus this week after the tragic deaths of several young people in Laos, including Melbourne teens Holly Bowles and Bianca Jones.

Sadly recognisable, Evan. We're losing community, although the pulling together during lockdowns showed us how simply community networks could be reestablished.
