The Archbishop of York again

This man is beginning to get my goat! I don't actually disagree with most of what he says here.

But this bit is disingenuous, to say the least.

Quote:

For too long, he argues, discussion about end-of-life matters have been dominated by debates about euthanasia and the numbers of people travelling to the Dignitas assisted suicide centre in Switzerland.

"There is a danger, when someone articulates alternatives to 'assisted dying', that we can be seen as somehow uncaring or out of touch with the suffering of families," he says.
No, you pratt, it's not that anyone objects to alternatives, but we do think you're bloody arrogant and uncaring when you vote in the House of Lords against legalisation of assisted dying!

I think the fact that he keeps cropping up in the news like this is part of his undeclared but extended campaign to become the next Archbishop of Canterbury.
