Lord Robert Winston says assisted dying will make elderly and `fragile´ patients feel obliged to kill themselves

(16.1.) Speaking in favour of an amendment to Lord Falconer‘s assisted-dying draft legislation on Friday, Winston said: „This is a major problem and will become an increasing one. We see the increasing difficulties in the health service when dealing with cancer care at the moment and the provision of drugs.“
