This view about assisted death seems suicidal to me - Richard Morrison

The recent debates about the law regarding assisted suicide have failed to address a deeper issue which is manifest in society – a whitewashing of the elderly out of the picture. The view that people shouldn’t have to tolerate a quality of life that has fallen below a certain (unspecified) level is slippery and vague. Shouldn’t we rather be focussing our efforts on providing much better palliative care for those at the end of their lives?
