So today the predictable happened. The right to allow certain people the right to take their own lives was slammed to the floor by MP's in a pretty heavy "NO" vote.

Now I for one am a very firm "FOR" the right to make this decision. The vote was not about allowing any tom dick or harry to do this, it was under a strict criteria of the patient having under 6 months to live, and be approved by 2 doctors AND a judge.
Its all well and good MP's sitting in their ivory towers and dictating this, but how would they feel in the same situation?
I can appreciate there are plenty of reasons against this, but this is our own choice we are talking about, something that affects no one but you and your family.
