Munday has also been involved in lobbying in favour of [[voluntary euthanasia]] (and [[Assisted suicide in the United Kingdom|assisted suicide]]), being a "carer" for three people who wish to undergo euthanasia. She was involved in the [[Diane Pretty]] case, arguing against the result of the ''[[Pretty v United Kingdom]]'' case under the [[European Court of Human Rights]] which decided that the [[European Convention on Human Rights]] did not provide a "[[right to die]]" and that her husband could not hope to escape prosecution if he "assisted" in her death. Munday argued: "It is now legal to commit suicide in the UK: it is illegal to discriminate against the disabled. But in this scenario a person who is prevented from taking their own life as a direct consequence of their disability is clearly discriminated against in a most fundamental way." |
