Families would have no legal right to stop dead relatives' organs being used for transplant if the person has not opted out in advance, under a proposed Welsh law.Really, love?
However, Health Minister Lesley Griffiths said she could not see a situation where doctors took organs without the permission of families.
Good god, you must be very, very stupid then…
Please, Julia. She is a politician. What else could you possibly expect?
ReplyDeleteI wondered how long it would be until the state got into the Organlegging game.

Impossible to say whether it was a whopping lie or the greatest political naïvety since Neville Chamberlain's 'I have this piece of paper' speech.
ReplyDeleteFuturehistory:
ReplyDelete"... and by 2019 the Welsh government had examined the possibility of adapting long rumoured Chinese policies of shooting condemned criminals, and occasionally those convicted of serious but not capital crimes, and harvesting the organs, see. Unfortunately it was already known by then that apart from criminals there was only one person left in Wales, Jones the Gun, who still had the means to shoot anyone, who had hidden it and refused to tell anybody where. This lead to the disastrous experiment in 2020 of putting criminals to death by the unusual means of massed close harmony singing, look you. It had not been anticipated that all indigenous Welsh criminals would simply join in, each already having demanded many thousands of renditions of Hen Wlad Fy Nhadau as their last request. Meanwhile, from the outset executions of foreign prisoners (the very first being a Mrs Preposition from Walsall who'd been convicted of stealing a sheep's makeup bag) caused international outrage and eventually led to charges in the Hague and a Europe wide boycott on Charlotte Church..."

ReplyDeleteClearly, they think most sci-fi, not just '1984', is a blueprint!
"Futurehistory:"
LOL!
"One day England might get it's own parliament as well......"
Dream on!
Maybe this is good thing. We could start with donating a bit of Welsh heart and brains to the English rugby team. Not any voice boxes obviously.
ReplyDeleteThe woman is a politician, so they play at politics.
ReplyDeleteThat means she sits in a warm office and between leafing through holiday brochures (the men can surf pron if they don't fancy Ibiza) she makes 'important decisions' about the lives of her flock.

But could have been worse. She might have insisted all sheep have aids tests.
