Assisted dying law – what happens next?

On Friday 29 November, the speaker of the House of Commons announced that Kim Leadbeater’s private members bill had passed its second reading with 330 MPs voting in favour and 275 against.

Many are asking what happens next? The Christian Medical Fellowship (CMF) and the Evangelical Alliance (EA) have helpfully covered this question in their latest pieces.

Sadly, this bill will normalise suicide in our society as a positive option and places the most vulnerable at risk of abuse and coercion.
