Some on the assisted suicide bill committee have such disregard for disabled people. Even their own. independent.co.uk/news/uk/politi…

In the run up to the next assisted suicide Bill vote we'll hear a lot about pain & suffering But in places where it's already legal, pain doesn't rate highly as a reason for Dr assisted death In my BBC One doc Better Off Dead? I ask the Bill's supporter Lord Falconer his view

On Friday MPs will likely vote on whether to proceed the assisted suicide bill Last year the BBC Radio 4 Profile series featured the Bill’s sponsor Today at 12.15 it’s my turn My opposing views & life history are explained via archive & others words bbc.co.uk/programmes/m00…

Despite the treatment (or indeed non-treatment) of some older, ill & disabled people during covid, MPs are still contemplating legalising medically assisted suicide Here's a secular explanation of why many of us oppose giving Drs & the state this power: bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episod…

MPs are already eroding away safeguards in the assisted suicide bill being voted on in Parliament today Eg: it's ok if someone feels like a burden & wants to die, mental capacity will be assumed not assessed & the original NHS ethos is essentially being eroded Not Dead Yet UK
