Are you saying assisted suicide is illegal, but _can_ be made OK by a contract? That's not the case in England.
By contrast, proxy voting is fine if you register your proxy with the local electoral office in advance.
- OJFord 11y agoNo, I'm wondering why would there be a separate law if it was automatically covered by not being able to consent your way out of being murdered.
- ams6110 11y agoProbably because it's not murder, it's suicide. Assisted suicide is generally not asking another person to kill you, it's asking another person to set up some situation so you can more easily kill yourself. And though suicide is illegal, such laws further define that assisting another person to commit suicide is also illegal.
