Thank you to the UK CMOs for this thoughtful and considered letter on the national discussion on #assisteddying, and in particular that Doctors and other Healthcare workers should be able to exercise freedom of conscience on this, and on abortion. A very important statement.

Dear Keir Starmer: the #assisteddying bill promises choice, but offers only coercion, anxiety and fear. It would be a fundamental shift in the Patient-Doctor relationship. Make good your promise to the electorate - more investment in palliative and social care services.

The oldest trick in the book by politicians who want to legalise assisted suicide is to discredit opposition as being religious Opposition increasingly comes from all directions including 350+ disability rights organisation in the UK - & not one is religious. #AssistUsToLive

Proponents of AD point to the limited scope of the Bill: terminal illness. But once the principle behind suicide prevention has been set aside, once any part of the ground has been ceded - not only to allow suicide but to assist it - we have lost something we may not get back.

This is ludicrously idiotic. Her bill itself, in sections 24(3) and 29(2) respectively, changes the Suicide Act (1961) and Births and Deaths Registration Act (1953), and in section 29(1) also changes the interpretation of certain parts of the Coroners and Justice Act (2009)!

**Assisted Dying** Friday's parliamentary vote on Kim Leadbeater MBE MP's Private Member's Bill risks introducing such a profound change to the fabric of society. While I understand that the subject is highly emotive, I believe the risks associated with legalising assisted suicide far

I don't want anyone to say, a decade down the line, that they were not warned, that they did not know this would happen, if this bill passes.

A very thoughtful and considered approach to making such a momentous decision on the #AssistedDying Bill. Thank you Calum Miller for listening to others as well as reflecting on & sharing your personal experience.

Dear Keir Starmer #AssistedDying would mark a fundamental shift to the patient-doctor relationship and diminish the shared humanity of us all. Every life has value. Stand for Justice and for the vulnerable. Vote against the bill today.

Prof. Mark Taubert Dr Rachel Clarke The age old custom of sitting with the dying confirms that suffering differs; emotionally, spiritually, and physically. Accompanying the dying soothes the first two. Palliative care soothes the third. Myths abound to justify euthanizing the vulnerable. We can do better.

Prof. Mark Taubert Dr Rachel Clarke I have attended. It is holy ground. There are deep, unspoken emotions for the one preparing to leave. Deep lessons for the ones that remain. Dying was the sacred part of living. It still is.

We've delighted to be in Westminster tonight, launching our new report "Hepatitis B: Break the Silence" with MPs at parliament. We're speaking with MPs about how to best work towards the World Health Organization (WHO)'s ambition to eliminate #hepatitisB in the UK by 2030. Read the report:

"These patterns suggest that #AssistedDying may exploit systemic neglect, particularly at the intersections of gender, poverty & isolation, and may better be described as structural coercion to die—essentially the opposite of autonomy."

Agree with you @DocSteve that expanded ED Testing so important in diagnosing people with #HepatitisB The British Liver Trust ‘s excellent report “Break The Silence” is a roadmap to better designed pathways & care britishlivertrust.org.uk/wp-content/upl…
