It is little wonder the standing of politicians among the Australian community is at a new low. You were not asked to lead on this issue, you were asked to catch up with the needs and wishes of your constituents. You let them down and insulted their intelligence.
You are clearly devoid of any political courage, just another politician warming a comfortable seat. With these qualities, if you ever do become Premier it will be by default and Tasmania will be the poorer for your tenure.
Will, voluntary euthanasia will eventually be decriminalised in Australia. The compassionate case for, and our rapidly aging population, will demand it. When that happens you will have the dubious satisfaction of knowing you delayed it. The sad part is many will die badly in the meantime, while you sleep comfortably in your smug moral cocoon.
