Alex Greenwich’s extreme euthanasia and assisted suicide bill passed the NSW Legislative Assembly on Friday after a debate where even sensible amendments were shouted down and rejected as a whole by pro-death advocates.
It is important to know how your local member voted and to remember this in March 2023 when they ask for your vote.
First, let’s congratulate those who stood up for the most vulnerable; insisting that the role of MPs is to ensure protection of those most at risk in society.
