This is wrong, this not a decision a nurse should take and I don't care if she has 20 years experience under her belt. Only a Doctor has the knowledge to make the call on such issues and this is without doubt a bad move by the BMA.

NHS nurses given power to end a life under controversial new guidelines
Nurses will be able to decide that a dying patient should not be resuscitated under controversial new guidelines.
Until now, only GPs and consultants could say whether there was any point in continuing efforts to save a life. But guidance issued last night by the British Medical Association will allow 'suitably experienced nurses' to make this crucial decision.

You Brits are realling losing it when some nurse can just pull the plug on you, if she doesn't like clipping your nails or other such stuff.
