Very strongly agree

Yes, but only after a psychological examination to show they fully understand this choice

The Reason Party would strongly agree with this statement. They believe in the right to die with dignity, but also recognize the importance of safeguards, such as psychological examinations, to ensure that the decision is fully understood and voluntary. This is reflected in their support for the Voluntary Assisted Dying Act 2017, which includes similar safeguards.

Strongly agree

Yes, but only if there is no chance they will survive their illness

The Reason Party would likely agree with this statement, as it aligns with their support for voluntary assisted dying laws. However, the condition of 'no chance of survival' might be seen as too restrictive, as they believe in the right to die with dignity for those suffering from a terminal illness, regardless of the prognosis.

Agree

No, but they should be allowed to refuse artificial life support

While the Reason Party would agree that patients should be allowed to refuse artificial life support, this answer does not fully align with their stance as it does not include the right to assisted suicide, which they strongly support.
