How close are we to legalising assisted suicide in the UK? Should dying be offered as a course of treatment by NHS doctors? The Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill is one of the most contentious pieces of legislation currently before Parliament. It seeks to amend the Suicide Act of 1961 so that 'encouraging or assisting suicide' would no longer be illegal if carried out in accordance with the new Bill. Joining Andy Kind on Unbelievable are Dr Susan Marriott, a trained medical doctor and Head of Public Policy at the Christian Medical Fellowship UK, and safeguarding expert Prof. Keith Brown who spoke on this topic when the bill first came to Parliament. Due to technical issues beyond our control, Prof Keith Brown was only able to join us for the start of the programme. We hope to welcome him back to Unbelievable before the Bill reaches its report stage on 25 April 2025.
