Govt opposes paralysed man’s bid for euthanasia

Govt opposes paralysed man’s bid for euthanasia | News | The Christian Institute: The High Court case [UK] of a paralysed man who wants a doctor to be allowed to kill him should be dismissed, the Ministry of Justice has said. The Government says there are “compelling reasons” for the court not to get involved in Tony Nicklinson’s case, saying that only Parliament can make such a decision. A medical ethics expert cautioned that cases such as Mr Nicklinson’s are “extremely rare and hard cases make bad law."
