LECRETIA SEALES IS IN A PRIVILEGED POSITION (Letter to Dom Post, April 7)

In asking the High Court ‘to clarify whether a doctor would be committing a crime if he/she were to help her to die’ (April 7), surely Lecretia Seales realises she’s in a somewhat privileged position. 

She’s comparatively young and attractive. She can expect loads of sympathy. She’s a lawyer so she knows how to work the system. But if her case succeeds and the law is loosened – and she must know what’s happening in Holland - what about old, ugly, stupid people whom no one wants around any more?
 
Who will defend them against avaricious rellies and conniving doctors, if not the law?
