Important point from consultant and MP Dr Peter Prinsley MP - palliative care and assured dying are complementary, never competitive. telegraph.co.uk/politics/2024/…

Listening to Kim Leadbeater MBE MP making perfect sense on BBC Radio 4 Today around assisted dying. Why don’t we take learnings from other countries where introducing assisted dying hasn’t resulted in the mass murder of the terminally ill which is how it’s being presented in some quarters.

EXCLUSIVE: David Cameron reveals that he has changed his mind and now supports assisted dying, arguing that it will help bring about a ‘meaningful reduction in human suffering’ Writing in The Times, the former PM says that he previously opposed changing the law because he

Assisted dying - I have my own views of course, but on such an emotive issue I thought it was right to consult my constituents. I have been running a local 'referendum' on whether the people of Great Yarmouth support assisted dying, or not. The poll closed last night, and the

Trust is the most valuable thing in politics. @torstenbell is absolutely right. But regardless of one’s views on the last 14 years, you don’t rebuild it by claiming there’s a black hole and then inflating it with pay rises, or by raising taxes you said you wouldn’t.

Labour’s plan for growth is working! The Le Chameau sale is out of all men’s wellies. Congratulations Steve Reed

I’m all for consumer convenience and cutting waste, but mandating USB-C in this way was fully ‘close the patent office because everything has been invented’ levels of stupidity - not least because the market was moving to USB-C anyway.

Make no mistake, this is a pivotal day in this century. Pulling the plug on Ukraine, US disinvesting in European security, and the big powers redrawing the boundaries of smaller ones. A new reality faces Europe and it’s going to require urgent investment in defence & security.

On Ukraine, Julia Hartley-Brewer devastatingly dissects the absurd position of Reform. And it gets to the heart of every single Reform policy: say anything for popularity without a single care for the hard realities of improving British people’s lives. Don’t let them get away with it.

The best most insightful analysis you’ll hear at the moment from former spooks chief. Top drawer

Serving with 🇺🇸 & 🇫🇷 were defining moments of my military career. Visiting 🇬🇧🇺🇸🇫🇷 joint ops around world - highlights of ministerial career. Being in room as ‘P3’ response to threats of recent years was considered, the most sobering. Sad to hear the relationship reduced to this.

Particularly coming after a member survey, this is significant and welcome. Changing the UK’s assisted dying legislation is hard, but it will be a huge improvement on the status quo. theguardian.com/society/2025/m…

I think it’s unbearable that desperately vulnerable, terminally ill people don’t have the option to end their own lives legally & humanely, while well people do. But wherever you are on this bill, we would all be better off if legislation got Nikki da Costa levels of scrutiny.

Great to see #France take this important step towards giving terminally ill people choice & control in their dying days🇫🇷 Around the world countries are recognising that compassionate patient-led care for dying people must include #ChoiceAtTheEndOfLife france24.com/en/france/2025…

Quite. There has been consensus across @conservatives that we should look at ECHR reform for many years now. In its absence leaving has always been the only option. telegraph.co.uk/politics/2024/…

⁦Powerful piece by ⁦Decca Aitkenhead⁩ on why we should allow those enduring terrible suffering to die with dignity. thetimes.com/uk/healthcare/…

Those who say ‘not this bill’ will I think always say it about all similar bills. Today is a once in a generation opportunity to help people who desperately need it now.

Not satisfied with giving up Chagos to Mauritius, Starmer’s Attorney General has now reportedly advised even just *using* the remaining military base on Diego Garcia to bomb Iran is against international law. This is exactly why we opposed the deal - it has weakened the UK hugely

Huge fan of this concept, empowering the most trusted layer of government.

There’s a lot to agree with here, but it is also important to recognise immigration to Britain, legal or otherwise, is driven by people’s desire to live and work more than to claim welfare.
