What debate? This poor family's experience has nothing to do with how perfectly happy, healthy people make decisions about the end of their lives.

This guy clearly never saw John Copper Clarke at the Electric Circus in 1978.

17 is too young to make those decisions & she was fit enough to not need any assistance. This omnishambles of familial dysfunction has nothing to do with perfectly healthy, mentally stable people like me deciding where, when and how I die - assisted or not. Emotion has no place in legislation.

Charley made more sense than any current social commentator. And he was entirely incomprehensible.

For others perhaps, but not for me. I am not married, have no kids and I'm an atheist. What's the complexity? I die when where and how I want to. It's absolutely no-one else business. Simple as.

About my own life!!??? That's a very bold boast.

This really isn't difficult. It is no-one's business whatsoever where, when and how I choose to end my life. End. Of.

Totally agree. But it's so difficult to figure out where all the money has gone. I mean I'm sure that it's just a coincidence that the oil companies, banks, energy providers, supermarkets & property developers are all making record profits. It's a real head scratcher.

But why didn't the EPL and all the journalists call this out decades ago? Everyone could see city were playing champagne football on beer income. city have been the 1980s East Germany 800 metre runner of football for 15 years.

But AI isn't artificial & isn't intelligent It's a real but manmade, massive search & guess engine It gets better at guessing in proportion to how proficient it is at searching The tech bros in charge of it still can't make autocorrect stop me typing "I'm just wanking the dog" in the family chat

Yes. Public discourse these days is just people carping from the sidelines. Of course rejoining will take ages and be really difficult, it might take decades, but it is inevitable because it's bleeding obviously the right thing to do.

Above all sport must be fair. It must be honest. It must be true. Otherwise, it is merely an entertainment with no more veracity than WWE or Gladiators. This is a rubicon moment for the Premier League. The essential validity of football is existential to it. city must fall and fall far.

So basically WW1 but with massive earbuds instead of howitzers and mustard gas. This is actually a really good idea!!

Tax must raise money and also be fair. Those are not always compatible. Giving the many small tax cuts rather than a minority of people a larger tax cut is fairer. Poorer people also spend spare cash in their communities so the velocity of that money is higher. Tax the rich and be kind.

So right. They normalised them on the telly and now won't hold them to account.

And as a United fan, I can tell you that the scruffy twat couldn't run a raffle. Everything about the guy is repellant. I think he might be the least self aware person I know.

I suspect that the poor harvests and extra animal feed costs this summer, combined with the cost of fuel is going to affect rural areas.

And you can only "aid and abet" someone to commit a crime. Seeking asylum isn't a crime. Farage is the shit on the shoe of this country.

Yep. I get off crawling along at 6 mph behind a sweaty middle-aged man having a midlife lycra crisis on the £5000 bicycle wearing just underwear so tight I can see his haemorrhoids. I suspect it's quite niche content on PornHub. Put some fucking shorts on!!!!

Farage's whole schtick is based on grievance.... Imagine how he'd have riled up his base if somehow the govt has tried to stop this payment. Burnham is a grown up.

By this logic we should ban televisions because some old people might get their's nicked.
