The most stressed out I've ever been about Christmas was when I was 16 and I got my first ever job, working at M&S in Dundrum. As soon as I started I kept hearing these myths about the Christmas Eve Waste Sale, where all the food that wasn't sold on the 24th was marked down 90%.

The question then must be how many wrongful deaths would be too many, in exchange for new provisions which cannot fix the underlying problem here. For me, that's zero. Let's fix the system instead.

"We must never accept the wrongful deaths of some in exchange for the desired deaths of others. That line, once crossed, will be crossed for ever." This is the issue in a nutshell. A very wise comment from the Lord Chancellor. Thank you, Shabana Mahmood MP. theguardian.com/society/2024/n…

Today’s column was about how my mother’s long illness shaped my view on assisted dying, but perhaps not in the direction you’d assume. thetimes.com/article/5050a7…

Very, very important that the conversation about improving palliative and end of life isn't confined to the vital specialist PC services but reflects the also vital care provided by those for whom this is not their main specialty. Nothing else works well without them.

There are so many things European countries could have prioritized following an Assad regime fall, be it a surge of humanitarian and civil society aid, support for a peaceful political process, or technical support for those liberating prisons or exhuming mass graves. (2)

By announcing asylum pauses with little clarity for those most impacted on what's next and what their status will be, European countries create pressure on refugees to consider returns that are not safe, not dignified, and not voluntary in violation of international law. (4)

Furthermore, for all asylum applications from a single country to be paused en masse violates the principle that asylum decisions must be made based on an individualized, case-by-case decision informed by personal circumstance. (5)
