It was wonderful to see DPAC on TV today, on the BBC no less.
I just dropped by to show some love and heaps of respect. Voting at such short notice at such a busy time was appalling giving the high risk of getting it even slightly wrong if it had passed.
[I am not completely opposed but speaking from a place of privilege, I did notice serious issues around lack of safeguards and processes, and we don’t need a situation where we fear hospitals or doctors… surely they could keep it off existing NHS grounds, far away from treatment, special NHS uniforms etc, isn’t it obvious that without huge amounts of separation there will be “mistakes” and homicides.]
To all those against and directly affected by the bill – including those with life-shortening conditions – my heart goes to you.
I am trying to listen when able, but I want you all to know that you are loved, you are respected.
And you are the ones who should be voting on the decision, and not the people who have no idea what it is like to live your life.
How they keep putting so many people through this awful and exhausting voting, only to keep announcing another vote!! It is terrible.
What’s the point in a No vote, if No means another vote every single time???
My love to all who are ok with that.
