1
Do we have the right to die?
2
And of course, it does all depend what you mean by a right.
3
I am a lawyer, so I would distinguish between two different sorts of right.
4
A negative right, which is the freedom to do something without being interfered with, either by the state or by other people.
5
And a positive right, which is the right to be provided with something by other people.
6
Now, We already have.
7
the negative right to die because we are free to refuse life -sustaining treatment.
8
including fairly aggressive life sustaining like the machine you were just talking about.
9
We have the right to refuse food and drink.
10
We have the right to refuse drugs that will cure Uh, terminal disease that we have.
11
So we already have that freedom.
12
We have the right to take even more active steps to kill ourselves because suicide is no longer a crime.
13
So the question really is, Are we also free to seek the assistance of somebody else to help us die.
14
when we can't do it ourselves or we don't fancy any of those options.
15
And The case that we had in the Supreme Court that asked that question very forcibly was a case concerning three people,
16
but one of whom was Paul Nicklinson.
17
All three of these people had suffered catastrophic injuries.
18
and were now very, very seriously disabled.
19
Unable basically to move other than to blink an eye or sometimes to move their head, occasionally just to move an arm a little bit,
20
but they were very seriously disabled.
21
They had been so for some years and had reached the conclusion that they did not want to go on.
22
but there were none of them dependent on a ventilator.
23
Had they been dependent on a ventilator, they could have said, "Turn it off." But they couldn't do that,
24
so their current choices were to refuse food, drink, essential medication.
25
So, I think that's a good question.
26
And all of them really wanted somebody to help them to die.
27
And we in the Supreme Court were asked to make a declaration as to whether
28
that was incompatible with their human rights and the European Court of human rights in Strasbourg,
29
has said that there is a human right to decide the place and manner of one's own.
30
Passing.
31
And so two of us in the Supreme Court, there were nine of us, Two of us took the view that denying people that right was,
32
obviously not always, but in the circumstances of those people, incompatible with their human rights.
33
Three of the other justices said, "Well, yes, we might do that, but not now, not yet." You know,
34
because Parliament is thinking about it and we think it's not the right case to do it.
35
And four of them said, even though the Supreme Court is free to declare that something,
36
this current state of the law is incompatible with human rights.
37
We don't think we should be doing it.
38
So I'm afraid that case convinced me that there was no...
39
easily sustainable moral distinction between turning off the ventilator.
40
And helping somebody.
41
to have a peaceful, dignified death in those circumstances.
42
So the issues are, In what circumstances?
43
What should the criteria be?
44
and Clearly, there have to be safeguards and procedures.
45
And so what should the safeguards and procedures be?
46
And there's loads to argue about in relation to both of those things, all of those things.
47
But the fundamental question, I think, yes we should have the freedom to ask other people to help us to die.
48
Those other people should be free to say no.
49
It's their choice just as much as it is the person who wishes to die's choice.

Qu'est-ce que la technique du Shadowing ?

Le Shadowing est une technique d'apprentissage des langues fondée sur la science, développée à l'origine pour la formation des interprètes professionnels. Le principe est simple mais puissant : vous écoutez de l'anglais natif et le répétez immédiatement à voix haute — comme une ombre suivant le locuteur avec un décalage de 1 à 2 secondes. Les recherches montrent une amélioration significative de la précision de la prononciation, de l'intonation, du rythme, des liaisons, de la compréhension orale et de la fluidité.
