LETTER: Matter of life and death
I find it impossible to understand why the rights of some 73 million Californians and Canadians are allowed, but in this country our politicians are so keen to simply refuse to allow a choice to the public, the overwhelming majority who are in support of a change in the law.
Caroline Ansell, the Eastbourne MP, voted against allowing individuals a choice. The statement on Caroline’s website is difficult to make any sense of, terms such as ‘legislative creep’ being meaningless. I would welcome the chance to debate this issue publicly with Caroline at a time and venue of her choosing, with an audience representing both sides of the debate. With this genuinely being a matter of life and death, I think the residents of Eastbourne deserve an informed debate, concentrating on the facts and not scaremongering. I wait to hear from our MP.
