Assisted Dying: Don’t Blame the Lords
Today, a bill to legalise assisted dying / assisted suicide comes before the House of Commons for its second reading.
Background
In October 2024, Kim Leadbeater MP introduced a private members bill to legalise assisted dying. A private members bill is one launched by a backbench MP rather than by the government. A certain number of these are randomly selected for debate each year. This passed its Second Reading in the House of Commons in November 2024.
