British State Cruelty to Children and a Controversial Conservative Prime Minister Who Can Hinder It But Does Not It

Update: After five days without ventilation, little Alfie
died, on April 28, as a direct consequence of the removal of the ventilation support
he needed to survive.

In
2016, Alfie, according to CNN, “was diagnosed with a neurodegenerative disease
associated with severe epilepsy and has been in a semivegetative state for more
than a year. During that time, he has been kept alive by artificial ventilation
in the critical care unit.”
British
doctors at the Alder Hey Hospital, where Alfie was admitted, said treatment was
futile and that, if they were to withdraw Alfie’s ventilation support, the
child would shortly die.
At 9:17 p.m. Monday (April 23, 2018),
ventilation and hydration support was withdrawn. But the baby did not die!
For
hours, Alfie continued to breathe unaided, with hospital staff refusing to help
with either ventilation or hydration despite his coughing, according to the
Christian Concern statement and Alfie’s father.
Pope
Francis said in his Twitter account, “Moved by the prayers and immense
solidarity shown little Alfie Evans, I renew my appeal that the suffering of
his parents may be heard and that their desire to seek new forms of treatment
may be granted.”
The
Italian government granted Italian citizenship to Alfie on Tuesday and applied
to the foreign secretary for permission to intervene to save Alfie’s life.
About
2 a.m. Tuesday, the Alder Hey hospital staff provided some hydration and oxygen
support. To make a baby go through hours of torture is unimaginable.
CBN, of Pat Robertson, ventured to say
that the United Kingdom is so proud — supposedly of its free health care system
— that it cannot allow the mercy of other nations to intervene. The British
medicine is socialist medicine. The cost is high: Once you are admitted in it,
you cannot opt out even when there are alternatives outside of it. At least,
this is Alfie’s case.
There
is a contradiction in the British treatment of babies with degenerative disorders.
Stephen Hawkins had such a disorder and he couldn’t breathe or feed himself on
his own, either. Perhaps the British government saw that to keep Hawkins alive
was too expensive and it does not want other expensive similar cases burdening its
system.
But
if the Vatican hospital offered free assistance, why not accept it? Individuals
and nations should be always open to generosity: to offer it or receive it.
So
if the British socialist medicine cannot help a baby, why hinder him from
receiving necessary medicine from other generous sources? British pride? This
is British stupidity.
Days
ago the British launched airstrikes on Syria over an alleged case of children
being gassed by the Syrian government. All the Syrian Christian leaders —
Catholic, Orthodox and evangelical — said that the charges were “fabricated”
and “without legal justification.” Even so, the British, under Theresa May,
attacked.
Should other nations launch
airstrikes on the British government over its mistreatment of a defenseless
baby?
Where
there was no solid evidence of children being gassed by the Syrian government,
May attacked. Where is solid evidence of the mistreatment of a baby — in a
British hospital —, May has not acted.
Even
so, Christian leaders are asking the British government to show mercy.
Theresa
May is a powerful politician in the United Kingdom. As the current Prime
Minister, she can exert her formidable power to help. Certainly, a woman who
can order airstrikes on the Syrian government (attacks that displeased
Christians, but pleased Islamic terrorists) can do a very small thing as
letting Alfie to be treated in the Vatican hospital.
May
is also the leader of the Conservative Party since 2016. A conservative should
always behave better than socialists. Yet, she has not been compassionate to
children.
May’s appointment as Minister for
Women and Equality 20 years ago was criticized by the homosexual movement,
because she had voted against lowering the age of consent in 1998 and for some
restrictions for homosexuals to adopt children in 2002.
Yet,
when she had voted in favor of civil partnerships for homosexuals, her mind was
open to much more. May later stated, during an appearance on the BBC’s Question
Time in 2010, that she had “changed her mind” on homosexuals adopting children
— not more worrying about children’s well-being, but only about the well-being
of the gay agenda.
Writing
for PinkNews in June 2010, May clarified her proposals for improving LGBT
rights including measures to tackle “homophobia” in sport, advocating British
society’s need for “cultural change.” Much before his appointment as Prime
Minister, May had already become a conservative leader in the service of the
gay agenda, which is essentially against children.
If
she can protect the homosexual agenda that hurts children, why worry about
Alfie?
If
May cannot accept the generous assistance of the Vatican because of an alleged
British national pride, why, for the sake of this same pride, does not she
punish Islamic immigrants who rape thousands and thousands of British girls?
Cannot she use the alleged British national pride to protect British girls from
Islamic rapists? Probably, she cannot, because the United Kingdom has long ago
forgotten what real national pride is.
Besides,
abortion is legal in the United Kingdom. No nation with legal abortion has real
concern for children.
Sorry,
conservative fellas, but with conservatives as Theresa May in charge of a
government, I prefer to side with “communist” Pope Francis regarding compassion
to Alfie.
Christian
charity from a “communist” pope is better than socialized medicine under a
pro-sodomy conservative leader.
