The debate around The Assisted Dying for Terminally Ill Adults (Scotland) Bill is about far more than individual choice

The debate around The Assisted Dying for Terminally Ill Adults (Scotland) Bill is about far more than individual choice. It is about the kind of society we want to be.

This powerful reflection in The Scotsman warns that once assisted dying becomes a legal option, the pressure felt by the sick, elderly and vulnerable may be impossible to contain, especially when people already fear becoming a burden.

Our response must always be compassion, accompaniment and care, never the deliberate ending of life.

If MSPs pass Assisted Dying Bill, I fear the cost to us all will be too high
