Don't accept whats been touted on BBC now that 1 /20 die every day with uncontrollable symptoms even though there's good palliative care ! Obviously palliative care not resourced or good enough then&that would not surprise in today's NHS- Assist life not death #AssistedDyingBill

But does not factor in the huge increase in acute hospital admissions & very poor IT systems leading to inefficiency...we have consultants typing up their own letters - that didn't happen 20 years ago !! share.google/xLgyPQKHsHIuV6…
