Give people with motor neurone disease the choice of Euthanasia

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

I feel that anyone who is suffering from this has the right to decide for themselves whether to live or die. Who has the right to stop anyone suffering an ending like this not only for themselves but also for their loved ones.

Why it was rejected

There was already a petition about this issue. Duplicates are rejected so signatures collect in one place.

Allow the practice of euthanasia in the UK.
