It. Is. On.

Start with the basics. Separation of powers:
Executive (government)
Legislative (Parliament)
Judiciary (courts)
All constitutionally separate. With me so far?

Stop me if I’m going too quickly for you. I can add illustrations if that helps.
From doctors. Not anyone in government.

Please do jump in at any time to explain how, in your medico-legal expertise, the judge and/or experienced doctors have got this wrong.

The “advice” was entirely bogus.

The court described this as “startling”. That’s judge-speak for “batshit”.

I mean it, @Liz_Wheeler. Jump in at any point if I’m getting any of this wrong. You, after all, started this by correcting me on how English law works.

Not on “cost of treatment”. Nothing to do with “socialised medicine” or “death panels”.
Solely what is medically best for a very sick child.
If not, your opinion is worthless and you are monstrously self-publicising over a family’s most unimaginable tragedy.
- Government was not involved at all in the decision.
- Decision based solely on assessment of Alfie’s best interests
- Medical evidence overwhelming
- Christian fundamentalists lying about the law to exploit tragedy.
- Twitter idiots fuelling fire.
Have a nice day.
