Today's story simply appears to be the Government has decided not to legislate on the matter. If so, that's fine - they don't need to. As  @miriam_cates has been arguing, they just need to change the guidance for schools. 2/4

Well said the British judge in his dissenting opinion: "I fear that in this judgment the majority has gone beyond what it is legitimate and permissible for this Court to do and, unfortunately, in doing so, may well have achieved exactly the opposite effect to what was intended."

Me too. The issue is not whether you approve of what this woman is doing, but whether you approve of giving the police the power to arrest someone for praying silently in a public place. Never in modern British history have we criminalised thought.

Too many rich ppl see charity as a bit of fun/ peripheral to the real business of life. Too many charities play into this - hence Kids Co, Presidents Club. We need a new grownup culture of philanthropy. This will enable charities to play a central role in communities, as they shd

My counter accusation is that media are doing this entirely cynically in order to sell their papers (which incidentally govt gallantly stepped in to help with this week). And I am confident my conspiracy theory is more plausible than theirs. 3/4

Great news the Irish Parliament will not be proceeding with the 'Dying with Dignity' (aka Assisted Suicide) Bill. The Justice Committee cited "concern that this Bill could result in abuse of the sick and vulnerable" & recommended the Bill go no further. @DyingWellAppg

We cannot trade our sovereignty for market access to the EU. We want a deal between independent states, as we have with Japan and as the EU has with Canada - not imperial preference (as the British colonies’ trade benefits with the mother country was called). 2/4

A trade deal would be good for our economy and good for our politics - helping heal the divisions exposed and exacerbated by Brexit. But neither reason outweighs the fundamental imperative of completing the Brexit process that the Withdrawal Agreement initiated. 1/4

The Guardian backed the South in the US Civil War & the Spectator backed the North. The slave trade was abolished thanks to the Tory MP William Wilberforce. Conservatives' record on this topic is good. Now we need to defend our common culture against the wreckers.

Very wrong of Lord Forsyth to say on R4 just now that there’s no evidence of assisted suicide laws being expanded (the slippery slope) in other countries. In EVERY COUNTRY WHERE A.S. IS LEGAL the scope has been expanded. It’s inevitable - and indeed the wish of campaigners.

Very good letter in Telegraph last week. The ‘right’ to die early will gradually become a duty. (And the ‘safeguards’ to keep this right for the nearly-dead and the physically and mentally capable will be seen as discriminatory, and be discarded). ⁦ @DyingWellAppg ⁩
