Today I’ve joined a cross-party group of MSPs in signing a letter to the Cabinet Secretary for Health supporting The Brain Tumour Charity's calls for a National Brain Tumour Strategy. Brain tumours are the biggest cancer killer of children and adults under 40, but that can be changed.

First ever namecheck in The Economist It’s a great piece in support of the compelling case for assisted dying. Can even forgive them for spelling my name wrong 😁

As I clambered into the front seat of the plane to Papa Westray this morning, terror was etched on the faces my fellow passengers. ‘How hard can it be?’ weren’t the words of reassurance they were looking for, apparently

'Our current laws on assisted dying are failing too many terminally ill Scots at the end of life.

Too often, and despite the best efforts of palliative care, dying people are facing traumatic deaths that harm both them and those they leave behind.'

Today is truly an historic milestone for law change in Scotland.

Liam McArthur MSP's Assisted Dying Bill has been published in Holyrood.

This is the Bill that over the next 12 months could change the law and provide choice, dignity and compassion for dying people in Scotland.

When you have to admit that instead of ordering one box of 100 gravy treats on Amazon, you’ve managed to order 100 boxes of gravy treats. Happy Friday, folks!

I took a look into Liam McArthur’s assisted dying bill and learned about some heartbreaking life-and-death case studies. This policy has cross-party support at Holyrood and among the public and Mr McArthur told me about the safeguards in his bill! 1/2 pressandjournal.co.uk/fp/lifestyle/6…
