Currently, privately owned e-scooters are illegal on UK roads, but rental schemes exist in some areas. The Department for Transport must respond to the coroner's recommendations within 56 days, which could lead to changes in e-scooter safety regulations.

The Federalist: Whistleblowers: Canadian Doctors Pushed MAID On Unwilling Patients
Whistleblowers in Canada allege that doctors pressured patients with disabilities to consider euthanasia under the Medical Assistance in Dying (MAID) program, which was expanded in 2021 to include non-terminal cases. Critics express concerns about the ethical implications and potential coercion involved in the process.
Patients Heather Hancock and Roger Foley recount experiences of being urged to accept euthanasia, with Foley claiming he faced neglect and threats related to his care. Advocacy groups warn that vulnerable individuals may be at risk within a system that appears to prioritize euthanasia over adequate healthcare support.
