The last year of life is a huge proportion of a person's entire lifetime's healthcare bill. It's one of the key places where lack of funding of the NHS will manifest unfortunately.

I've said it through this thread I don't trust the safe guards, I don't trust them not to be watered down and I don't trust politicians to act in our best interests. The evidence from Europe backs up what I've been saying all along. If we could guarantee it'd only be used in the final hour/days/weeks of someone's life when they're in intolerable pain no one here would argue against it but it won't be, Europe has shown us that already. I can see it now as well someone who is very ill goes to court with the best of intentions so they can be assisted and it'll be eroded that way.

in other words. could these 'expensive' drugs be sold for £5 a pop in the real world. if you take greed and profit out of it?

if we did that then we'd have no drug companies left in the real world
