First British couple die in Swiss suicide clinic
6 March 2009
An elderly couple have become the first British pair to die together in a Swiss suicide clinic, it was revealed last night.
The retired millionaires, Peter and Penelope Duff, were both suffering from severe forms of cancer when they travelled to the Dignitas centre in Switzerland.
Mr Duff, founder of the Wine Guild of the United Kingdom, had cared for his wife until he was also diagnosed with cancer. The couple moved out of their Georgian mansion in Bath and told friends they were retiring to a second home in Dorset.
They travelled to Switzerland to die together shortly afterwards. the rest

Isn't it nice that a “wealthy couple” had various options and that Prince Charles sent them a note? That’s SO BIG of the Prince!
Very glad that Switzerland will always be there for the wealthy. That’s a comfort.
Of course, options such as the ones the "wealthy couple" had are not available to or obtainable by the middle and lower classes, but at least there will always be liquor, illegal drugs, the streets, and overcrowded and dirty county hospitals for them.
The world has been taken over by Ebenezer Scrooges, and they are now lauded and extolled as "celebrities" and gods as the outcome of a plague of human, monstrous pigs against which, if there ever was a cure, we've certainly lost it now.
