Assisted dying might very quickly be legalised within the UK, with MPs being given a free vote by Prime Minister Keir Starmer on a invoice that’s simply been launched by Labour MP Kim Leadbeater.
It’s a controversial concern with passionate emotions on either side that has been debated – and rejected -by parliament earlier than, however campaigners suppose this time they might get it over the road.
So, is that this invoice a humane and logical step to alleviate these in insufferable agony, or is it a slippery slope that distorts the worth of life within the UK?
On this week’s episode of the Political Fourcast, Krishnan Guru-Murthy is joined by Conservative MP Danny Kruger, who fronted a documentary on the topic along with his mom Prue Lieth, Liberal Democrat MP Christine Jardine, a long-time campaigner for assisted dying, and Channel 4 Information’ Well being and Social Care editor Victoria McDonald.
Produced by Silvia Maresca, Calum Fraser, Rob Thomson.
