Let it go. It's Dan Hodges and, as any observer of this ridiculous man knows, he's never been right about anything, ever. Besides, why should anyone, anywhere give a shit about what he thinks about anything? I've got a lifetime of experience to draw on, I could run rings around him based on the jobs I've done, the people I've known and the places I've been. So fuck off Dan Hodges.

I was listening to news earlier when Tammy Gray Thompson was arguing that the Bill was wrong because there were not enough medical professional available to make it viable. I have a lot of time for Tammy Gray Thompson but given that the Bill won't come into effect for 4 years there is plenty of time to get the medics in place. And if the medics are not in place then approval won't be given.

Well, technically, that is true, as Kim herself readily acknowledges. But she wasn’t even trying to become an MP until her sister Jo was murdered.

By one of the coincidences that make our world such an interesting place my mum finally slipped away a few hours after the vote. Anyone who voted against it should have had to spend the last few months visiting her. She was thankfully peaceful over the past few days but before that we had months of mental torture for her and a lot of angst for those of us who saw her fading.

My condolences, David.
I hope you can now find peace and closure, and your memories of her will be from before her illness.

In my thoughts.
