.....move to Libya!
leading cancer specialist has said it is likely that the Lockerbie bomber Abdelbaset al-Megrahi is being kept alive by pills not available in the UK.
Prof Roger Kirby said a new hormone-based therapy may explain why he is alive two years after he was given three months to live.
He also said his release from prison was based on flawed medical advice.
The Scottish government said the decision was made in good faith and on the best information available.
Megrahi, who had been diagnosed with terminal prostate cancer, was freed from Greenock Prison two years ago on 20 August 2009.
As the second anniversary of his release from prison approached, Prof Kirby, of The Prostate Centre in London, said he believed the Lockerbie bomber was "almost certainly" being kept alive by a drug called abiraterone.
The hormone-based therapy has been passed for use in the US, but is not yet available to patients in Britain.
Got to love this country and it's modern world class medical care!
