I read in this morning's DT that a commission is suggesting that maybe people should be allowed to chose to die decently - while recognising that not all that many are likely to want so to do.

So maybe there will be progress on this front.

I wonder if PaddyPower would give me odds on bets built around guessing whether our leaders will get around to changing our laws on suicide before they get around to changing our equally antiquated laws on drugs? A whole range of betting options spring to mind. But, maybe, as a company registered in Ireland they are constitutionally barred from meddling within the precincts of mother church. Or maybe one could do the deal through their IoM affiliate (Paddy Power Holdings Limited, 1st Floor, 14 Athol Street, Douglas, Isle of Man), presumably there for some tax avoidance reason, but which might just serve the present purpose.
