It was intended as an example, as you well know there is no link other than 40 odd years ago the public were duped on a massive issue.

But legislatively, there was nothing?
So if there was no legislation, then how can that non-existant legislation be watered down?
Why do you specifically think the law on assisted suicide will be watered down at some future time, to enable people to knock off their kinsmen for financial gain, then?

With respect quite possibly the only things the Baroness and your nan have in common is their ages, she isn't some old dear writting in complaining about stuff, this is a well respected Life Peer whose opinion has been saught in some of the most moral and philisophical areas of modern life, just because her views on this aren't vogue they could well be in the future and at some point they will almost certainly be wheeled out to help test the water.

And as I've been saying, just because she says something does not automatically mean that at some point in the future it will become law.
