8 Section B answers, each with its plan and a note on every paragraph.

Should a terminally ill adult have the legal right to help in ending their life?Yes, within strict limits: the right should exist, and the safeguards are where the argument is won or lost.
Should the law allow adults to consent to sports, such as boxing, whose purpose is to injure?Yes: competent adults may accept serious risks, and the law should regulate boxing rather than ban it.
Is it right to use animals in medical research if it may save human lives?Yes, but only when no alternative exists and the suffering is kept to the minimum the research needs.
Will automation and artificial intelligence make society more unequal?Yes, unless governments act: the technology does not decide the outcome, but left alone its gains flow to those who own it.
Should internet access be free for everyone?A basic level should be free for those who cannot afford it, because modern life now assumes it; unlimited access for all need not be.
Should university education be paid for by the state?Largely yes, but through general taxation rather than by every graduate repaying a fixed price, because the benefits are shared.
Should unpaid internships be banned?Yes, for real work: if an intern is doing a job, they should be paid for it, because unpaid work rations opportunity by family wealth.
Should there be a compulsory retirement age?No, as a general rule: people should be judged on their ability, not their age, with narrow exceptions where the risk is high and testing is hard.
