Tony Nicklinson has died this morning

I have emailed them to say the "dead" headline is awful. "Has died" would be much more respectable.

I am sorry for his family but also understand the relief they may feel as they know it is what he wanted.

"very sad that he was forced to starve himself to death. The end could have been so much more peaceful for him."

Agreed. It's disgusting that anyone thinks this is ok.

I agree it's a great shame after all he's been through that his last days were such a struggle. Thank heavens he is now at peace. RIP. a
And I wish strength for his family and friends.
