Campaigning for fairness + liveable communities @ the Healthy Air Coalition. I post my own and others' views on politics, clean air, housing, legal and social justice issues. #pwME and #AssistedDying advocate.

Longtime assisted dying opponent Hadley Freeman quotes an MP on the Bill Committee, NHS doctor @simonforstroud.bsky.social as saying: "It is very important that this committee doesn’t get too hung up on anorexia". Hadley then majors on how unrestricted AD laws could impact those with anorexia...
