He was dying anyway, if not from having the ventilator removed, but by the withdrawal of nutrients as a back-up plan.
Now is my time to say that you cannot know that, right?

Removal of nutrients will result in starvation and death 100%.

I was talking about you saying that it was a backup plan to kill him, you cannot know their intentions.

Of course...why withdraw nutrients then?

"Of course..." what? Sorry, I don't understand what you mean, do you mean you do know what they were thinking?

I meant I cannot know their intentions, then asked a question about their intentions withdrawing nutrients.

I don't need a doctor, it is a point of principle to me, if euthanasia is illegal then how is withdrawing nutrients not euthanasia?
Same outcome, just slower.
Do you deny that withdrawing nutrients ends only one way, death?

in your opinion, Clinically assisted nutrition and hydration (CANH) is treated as a medical treatment, and as such can be removed.

Why withdraw nutrients then if the belief is that the condition will kill the patient?
No need to withdraw nutrients in such circumstances, rather obviously to any rational thinking person.
You are slippery with your replies, you know exactly what my point of principle is.

What do you mean by "slippery"? You ask questions and answer them the best I can.

None of you can get away with saying that socialized medicine might be terrible in some aspects.

So now the UK government can shut down all opposing views and opinions about the subject, while threatening legal force, because of a few random social media posts? How do we even know those people are real?
This is the world we're living in now, and it's like something you would read in a George Orwell novel.
No it can't. Stop making stuff up.
Get your hands off your ears and open your eyes. You are now brainwashed to hate anything the Gov tells you to hate aren't you? YES you are! Take your hands off your ears and open your eyes. Look and listen to what is happening. You have reasoned it ok to allow the starving of that child to death who might get healed in a few months with the tech coming along. Stem cell research is making huge strides. Crazy to not allow another hospital to take over the care. ASININE actually.
Yes because you clearly know more about the boys condition than the doctors who examined and cared for him for 18 Months.
Failed logic on your part.
It is a failing argument to continue as when the Italian Dr's wanted to try and when wasn't allowed to happen. Collectivism mindset has set in for several of you here in this thread. The Italians didn't get a chance.
