Kim Leadbeater’s assisted-suicide bill is unravelling before our eyes.

Her attempts to sideline reasonable concerns have alerted MPs to the dangers of this bill.

The shoddiness of the drafting of the.

Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill has become all too apparent during the committee stage.

23 MPs are currently scrutinising it line by a line.

Do we really want to create a society where we tell terminally ill patients that it’s okay to die if it saves money for their family? Proponents of assisted suicide seem to have no idea of the horrors they are unleashing.

Some MPs have already publicly switched positions ahead of the third reading.
