More for palliative care

THE Labor mob seem quite keen to start euthanasing, already legal in Victoria, coming up soon in WA, on the agenda for us.

Don’t give them the power. And why aren’t they funding palliative care? Queensland AMA president Dr Dilip Dhupelia says we badly need increased palliative care services across the state and more health professionals to provide palliative care services across the state 24 hours a day. No “rights” in euthanasia, but an empowered state, and a right to die, soon becomes a duty to die.
