Irish Medical Council endorses ‘fundamental shift’ in medical ethics paving way for government euthanasia push
The Irish Medical Council has updated its ethical guidelines for doctors. But the question must be asked: Why has the Irish Medical Council removed such an explicit and clear instruction from its ethical guidance and while the parliamentary deliberations are still in progress? There are other noticeable changes in this first updating of the Irish Medical Council’s conduct and ethics guide since 2016. According to the Iona Institute, Ireland’s Minister for Health “oversees appointments” to the Irish Medical Council, while “GPs were not consulted” ahead of the removal of Article 46.9 and the prohibition against the deliberate killing of a patient. It is hard not to conclude that there has been a fundamental shift in how medical ethics are to be carried out in Ireland.

Why I'm going to do more of what makes me happy in 2024
Watching the return of Operation Transformation (which is, somehow, in its 17th season), I couldn’t help but be struck by the motivations most participants had when applying for the show. It was genuinely moving but it also got me thinking about how we approach health changes as we become parents. Often, despite what L’Oréal ad campaigns have told us for years, we can’t quite believe we are worth it. Watching the five participants share their stories on Operation Transformation was inspiring. As I dive into being a 2024 mammy, I am going to do more of what makes me happy, be it eating chocolate for breakfast or getting fit and healthy, because maybe L’Oréal was right all along —maybe I am worth it.
