    Bernard Keane Retweeted Lyle Shelton

    Time for a plebiscite on euthanasia. And I know Lyle and the ACL backs the idea.https://twitter.com/LyleShelton/status/931135597539868672 …

    Bernard Keane added,

    Lyle Shelton @LyleShelton
    Breaking: Euthanasia bill defeated in NSW Parlt 20-19. A win is a win and should be celebrated. But it is too close for comfort. We desperately need more good people to participate in politics.

        We've been here before over SSM. Plebiscites are for Constitutional matters. We need politicians to read the community and simply do their job by voting in Parliament.

        "Good people". Like the kind of people who bully and attack LGBTQIA+ youth, who have the highest rates of self-harm and mental health issues, hey @LyleShelton ?

        I think it'd be fine for this to vary from state to state. If that means eg people leaving NSW to live in VIC so they're free to die here in the future that's NSW's problem.

        With all our knowledge and technology in 2017 we still have to die a more painful death than animals that know nothing. God would be so pleased ...

        80% of Australians support assisted dying as a choice for the terminally ill. So yes, plebiscite please.

        They won’t give us such a plebiscite, as we would win, and the god botherers would go ballistic. Both sides are cowards on this point.
