I didn’t vote in favour of Assisted Dying Bill but welcomed the commitment that it would face fair scrutiny as it proceeded through the House. I worry we are not seeing that at the moment.

“A “judge plus” panel is not an MDT, nor does it come close to being one, because no one on the panel knows the patient. Moreover, the panel’s scrutiny comes only at the end of the process, not at the beginning” thetimes.com/uk/healthcare/…

Promise made, promise delivered early!
We promised to deliver two million more appointments a year as our first step to bring down waiting lists.
We’ve delivered - seven months early!
A hell of lot more to do, but the tide is turning.

Very pleased to be asked on to @SophyRidgeSky show last night to talk about why removing the High Court judge from the process is making MPs question their support for the assisted dying bill

Can the Assisted Dying Bill still pass? Labour's @antoniabance MP tells @SophyRidgeSky she is helping to organise opposition to the Assisted Dying Bill. 'This Bill is not fit for purpose. It will not make good law,' she says trib.al/aEPrCpo 📺 Sky 501

This sets out the very real fears I have about the potential for the Bill to facilitate the state sanctioned death of abused women. Half of health professionals say they cannot identify domestic abuse.

The assisted dying bill has been written as though male violence and coercive control didn't exist - and ignores the evidence about men "mercy killing" sick women. For the NS: newstatesman.com/politics/femin…

I'm concerned that the decision to remove High Court Judges from the assisted dying process will leave vulnerable people at greater risk of coercion.
We need more safeguards, not fewer

It's not right that the goalposts keep moving.
At Second Reading, MPs were promised the #AssistedDyingBill had "the most robust and strongest set of safeguards and protections in the world".
It's becoming increasingly clear that the Bill is flawed, rushed and not fit for purpose.

Safeguards on the Assisted Dying Bill are collapsing. Rushed, badly thought out legislation. Needs to be voted down. itv.com/news/2025-02-1…

Do not strip judges out of assisted dying decisions, warns Lady Hale on.ft.com/3QcCqj6

People have different views on assisted dying - mine are pretty clear and that’s fine because we live in a democracy.
What isn’t fine is a monumental change to - and for - our society that doesn’t get the balanced and objective unpicking it most certainly demands. #LoveNuL 🇬🇧🌹

Labour’s @Meg_HillierMP on @BBCr4today explains the critical difference between campaigning and legislating with regard to the Assisted Dying Bill.
She says the safeguards are currently inadequate & is clearly worried about proper scrutiny of the Bill

The key safeguard that was used to persuade MPs who raised valid questions about the bill has now been dropped. To say this is worrying is an understatement.
Can they explain why lawyers, psychiatrists & social workers won’t be overwhelmed? Just a farce. itv.com/news/2025-02-1…

I have joined with some other MPs who have concerns about the Assisted Dying Bill to put out a statement about the removal of the High Court from the decision.

Rachel is a GP and palliative care specialist serving local residents in Friar Park in my constituency. I am proud to have her support in raising concerns about this assisted dying bill.
Dr Rachel Fisher@DrRachelFisher
Thank you @antoniabance and colleagues for your astute letter. Assisted suicide will not uphold autonomy and dignity and will not reduce overall suffering. #PalliativeCare can, if only it were accessed. Let's serve our patients in the Black Country.

I’ve cleared my afternoon to go through every single amendment later today. I am sure my colleagues on all sides of this argument will be engaging similarly.
But first I’m off out on the doors #LoveNuL 🇬🇧🌹

This morning, the amendments paper to the Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill stands at 99 pages long- nearly 3 times as long as the actual Bill. More will doubtless follow- they only need to be tabled 3 days ahead of when the committee gets to that bit of the Bill.
