“Pregnancy should not be a bar” to assisted suicide, according to the Labour peer pushing state-sanctioned murder through the House of Lords
Lord Charles Leslie Falconer, Baron Falconer of Thoroton, made this shocking statement as the Assisted Dying bill was debated in the Upper Chamber. Falconer served as Secretary of State for Justice under Prime Minister Tony Blair and is both a longtime advocate of assisted suicide and the bill’s sponsor in the Lords.
“There is a big issue here,” Lord Craig Mackinlay, Baron Mackinlay of Richborough, told the peers. “In other states around the world who have had assisted dying for some time have differences of view. In Oregon, since 1997, there is a requirement to keep the mother alive as long as possible, particularly when there is a viable fetus.”
“The Netherlands takes a completely different view, and that is one of feticide, where the fetus has to be terminated by one means or another,” he continued. “Often by intracardiac injection of potassium chloride before the mother can be euthanized.”
“On which end of the scale does [the noble lord] refer these things, because we are in a situation where the Royal Colleges are against his whole system, and we will be relying on them to fill in the gaps of this legislation,” Lord Mackinlay concluded. “I think it is incumbent on us to fill in those gaps for them, because they’re not keen on this.”
“The noble lord puts it accurately,” Lord Falconer responded. “Some countries have taken one view, and other countries have taken another. It’s clear from the choice that I am supporting that we take the view that pregnancy should not be a bar to it.”
Lord Falconer’s single, clinical statement is the reductio ad absurdum—or perhaps the inevitable conclusion—of the Culture of Death: a pregnant woman being euthanised, with her baby being killed either just prior to her own demise by lethal injection or perishing with her. The conscience of Lord Falconer is so hardened that the spectre of this double killing does not cause him to bat an eye. After all, Westminster just decriminalised abortion until birth—why should the life of a viable baby be a barrier to a mother’s suicide?

| |  SHOCKING! Lord Falconer says “pregnancy should not be a bar” to assisted suicide! After Lord Mackinlay ( @cmackinlay ) tells Peers that Oregon protects viable unborn babies from assisted suicide, Lord Falconer seems completely unmoved & unbothered about this issue. | |  | | | | |
