I understand that you don't agree with me. Some are myopic and can't see beyond their own nose.
They don't understand basic facts. For example, the government want to cut disability benefits and the current rhetoric in the press is that they're scroungers. They are some of societies' most vulnerable people who are being forced into further poverty and scapegoated.
This is part of Women's Aid statement on the bill:
Coercive and controlling behaviour, which is designed to make a person dependent on their perpetrator by isolating them from support, exploiting them, and depriving them from independence, is at the heart of domestic abuse.
This form of abuse is closely linked to domestic homicide and suicide in the context of domestic abuse, meaning that there are real risks that without effective safeguards in place, the Assisted Dying Bill could leave survivors in an extremely vulnerable position.
This is particularly the case for older survivors and disabled survivors, who may have to depend on their perpetrator as their care giver or who, after years of abuse destroying their self-worth, may feel like the word is a better place without them.
It is important to recognise that disabled people are more likely to experience domestic abuse and coercive control, and that measures need to be in place to protect them. Disabled survivors and those with terminal illnesses can experience medical coercion, which may involve being pressured into signing DNRs or feeling that they must refuse treatments.
And no, it's not meant to be funny so try not to laugh.
