Legalise voluntary euthanasia.

Rejected 11 signatures

What the petition asks

Legalise voluntary euthanasia for those suffering from intolerable and incurable illnesses including mental illnesses
People who are suffering intolerable and incurable want to end their life painlessly but can't do it at the moment. They deserve to have a system put in place like in Belgium where they can obtain voluntary euthanasia from a physician.
