Labour MPs turn on assisted dying Bill
- Four Labour MPs have decided to vote against the Terminally Ill Adults Bill, calling it 'drastically weakened' and expressing concerns about its safety, according to the MPs' letter.
- The Bill would allow terminally ill adults in England and Wales to apply for an assisted death, requiring approval from two doctors and a multidisciplinary panel, as stated in the proposed legislation.
- The Royal College of Psychiatrists expressed serious concerns and cannot support the Bill in its current form, highlighting issues with the proposed safeguards.
- Public support for the Bill remains high at 73%, with a recent YouGov poll showing a slight increase in those who think assisted dying should be legal, now at 75%.
