The presence of David Frost in the HoL is an affront to democracy in itself. If anyone believes his amendment changing “assistance to die” to “medical help to commit suicide” is a serious attempt to improve legislation, they need a good shake
EXC - MPs and peers who backed the assisted dying bill now believe it is “near impossible” for it to pass the House of Lords in time because of procedural obstacles used by opponents.

“It is our system at its absolute most dysfunctional,” one MP said.

It probably won’t surprise you to know that this is much better than anything else you’re going to read about Greenland right now
Would you like to read something about Greenland that isn't about geopolitics, but is instead about love, and grief, and gyrfalcon nests? Here's a story I wrote once for @thelonelycrowd.bsky.social. richarddsmyth.com/2021/10/01/s...

‘Only the last verse,’ she said, as if to herself.
Pick up the nearest book. Turn to page 42, post the second sentence.
