"Many people do not have confidence in the face of authority, and if a doctor raises assisted suicide with them, however tactfully or professionally, they will feel that they are being steered in that direction." Diane Abbott #NotThisBill #assistedsuicide #AssistedDyingBill

Pleased to be one of them. We should not rush down the road with #AssistedDyingBill until all niggles ironed out as issue genuinely is existential #Notthisbill

🚨The #assistedsuicide Bill is now weaker than ever, putting the vulnerable, disabled and elderly at risk, and our latest polling shows the public have serious doubts.

I get the feeling that some MPs haven't scrutinised the #AssistedDying bill& are voting for this because they feel that Kim Leadbeater is a good egg, which undoubtedly she is. But this is NOT voting 4 your favourite act at Eurovision, this is seismic law change at breakneck speed

🚨If the #AssistedDyingBill passes, as long as you meet the broad criteria, anyone who feels a burden, worries about care costs, or suffers from depression can be given lethal drugs - turning desperation into a deadly prescription for the vulnerable. #NotThisBill

BREAKING: MIT just completed the first brain scan study of ChatGPT users & the results are terrifying. Turns out, AI isn't making us more productive. It's making us cognitively bankrupt. Here's what 4 months of data revealed: (hint: we've been measuring productivity all wrong)

I follow evidence. Royal Colleges RC of Pathologists, @RCPsych & Royal College of Physicians and APM (Palliative Care), British Geriatrics Society (Geriatricians), Government Suicide adviser louis appleby & many more believe the #AssistedDyingBill is unsafe, should we not heed their expertise? #NotThisBill

Only 30% of pall care is NHS funded. Given today's vote, Keir Starmer, will you least commit to dramatically increasing palliative care provision so that patients don't "choose" to end their lives because we don't give them the care that might make life worth living?

This is very wise. Danny, how I wish I had known of you before. I am merely a doctor who works with terminally ill pts on a daily basis. An incorrigible atheist (irrelevant, but also a bit inconvenient to black&white thinkers, I know, I know), with my petty concerns about aspects
