I get your grievance Bibs but how many people that WANT to donate find 5 mins to do it when the last thing they think will happen is they'll die the next day. The only people who give it thought are those with death on the radar... and who wants those organs?! I'm normally an opt in kind of guy but this is one where it makes sense to opt out, if you have that strong a view you will. If you're passive or want to donate it it means you get your wish that you might not have otherwise found the time to do. Especially good news for us road rash enthusiasts. ![]()

privatisation of the NHS is coming very very soon which means that the public will pay for organ transplants but the private health will not need to pay for the organs. we the public should not need to out out of anything. |

The only thing i wouldn't donate is eyes. The rest of it they can have to help others live. I don't need them when i'm dead. |

IIRC the opt out / presumed consent was only introduced in England last year, Wales have had it for a while though, wonder if Sheep and cows can opt out of steak and kidney pies ?

i dont mind donating my organs if i choose too but being forced to donate unless i take time out to opt out is not a donation this constitutes as mandatory.
i as a member of the public should not need to opt out of anything. |
