In my latest for @TheCriticMag, I spoke to physicians, palliative care consultants and those with legislative experience about why Canada must reverse the expansion of its assisted suicide regime.

Canadian policies on assisted suicide are incoherent and unsafe, argues @AdamPollock. It is high time they were reversed

Part of the reason fuel prices are so high in Britain is because the government takes 52.95 pence in tax on every single litre of fuel.
For the Americans: gasoline costs on average $10.59 per gallon in Britain, and the Government takes about a third of it as tax.

As much as I am no fan of the SNP or the Green Party…
No foreign government should be cheered for detaining British elected representatives. Terrible precedent, especially for a country as rogue as Israel, to set.
Minimum wage is now increasing quicker than private sector pay growth.
This increase, 3.9%, is far better than private sector earnings growth, which is currently at 3.0%.
Factor in student loans repayments, and young people are better off working minimum wage than going to uni.
The minimum wage will have increased by over 50% since 2020.
There is almost zero incentive now for young people to go to university and attempt to get a more specialised/corporate job in Britain.
The pay simply doesn’t justify it. They’re better off working for minimum wage.
Cyclists knowingly disobeying rules while the urban scarecrow security officers stand unable to enforce them, against a backdrop of a once-great street now full of globalised copy-paste tat.
They’re calling it the most 21st century Britain clip of all time.
Cyclists are continuing to ride along the newly pedestrianised section of Oxford Street, despite being asked to dismount.
Around seven security staff have been stationed near Oxford Circus, calling out to cyclists to get off their bikes, with mixed success.

Controversial opinion: box graters are almost entirely useless and a waste of space.

Do people not understand that “frozen crab sticks” do not generally contain crab, but instead are ultraprocessed slop made up of pulverised fish?

The Prince of Liechtenstein vetoed a radical abortion bill that would have allowed abortion on demand for any reason for the first three months of a pregnancy.
Nice to see the leader of a country actually take a positive stand on a moral issue. More of this please!
Got back to my hotel in London at midnight to discover the receptionist sleeping on an inflatable mattress behind the closed reception desk. Is this normal?

“How might we square the fact that they have lost a degree of mental capacity now, that they have left instructions when they were younger to end their life when this happens, with the fact that they are perhaps the most content they have been in their whole life?” he asks."
