"Euphemisms in the assisted dying debate cloak it in language of compassion and discretion, but behind the veil there are some ugly truths. Some MPs debating the law are offended by terms such as suicide and killing, but if we hide from the reality of the words we use in the debate, we will also hide from the reality of the law."

The Feeble Four: #Tory superheroes assemble – cartoon by Chris Riddell in The Observer, 6th October 2024.
#JamesCleverly, #KemiBadenoch, #TomTugendhat, and #RobertJenrick jostle for positions in the run-up to the UK #Conservative leadership election.
Tom Tugendhat now says he "does not accept" there's a "climate emergency".
And I'm just remembering when liberals said this guy would be a nice, moderate Conservative leader?
He's just yet another charlatan who's now thrown all his previous supposed ideals in the dustbin for the sniff at political power, in a party that doesn't want him anyway.
It's why 'politics' is all just a sham, for the power among the few, and the rest of us don't want it.
It's safe to say that Tom Tugendhat has long since been a 'sensible' Tory, now that's he banging on about vaccine passports, as being a key part of his pitch to be the next leader.
