My thoughts on why conscience protections, and a legally tight opt-in, is important in relation to Assisted Dying. Despite my focus on protecting health and care workers' RIGHTS - from doctors to porters - supporters of the Bill (mostly Labour) kept interrupting. There seems to be great complacency and...

Today in Parliament, I will be voting against the Assisted Dying Bill. I have no principled objections to assisted dying; however, as someone with nearly 30 years of experience in health and care, I believe that the bill presented to us is both unworkable and unsafe.

Everyone deserves dignity at the end of life but that starts with better care, not fewer options. Doctors and health professionals are raising concerns. I’ll be voting against the Assisted Dying Bill and continue to fight for proper investment in palliative care.

🔥“APPALLING” - Lord Mark Harper quite rightly calls out the unacceptable behaviour of a Peer earlier in the debate who seemed to object to equal conscience protections for porters as for doctors. A Bill of the elite for the elite!

Despite Labour's boasts that the Employment Rights Bill is pro-workers, all evidence shows that it will cost jobs, lower productivity, cause wage cuts and lead to lawfare/costly employment tribunals. I made a plea for the government to at least agree to check if there will be any unintended consequences of this labyrinthine Bill, dripping in regulations and bureaucracy. The minister said NO!

MPs are debating and voting on the final stage of a bill today which could legalise assisted dying in England and Wales. I am against this legislation - as I recently discussed on BBC Debate Night. This bill ignores vital safeguards on an individual case by case basis. How can there be an option of death without creating pressure to choose it? And how can there be such an option of death while still affirming each person’s value and humanity? Instead of assisted dying, the focus should be towards assisted living.

There's been criticism of our Employment Rights Bill from plenty of quarters but some of the Tory complaints about it bear little relation the actual Bill! We are proud of the biggest upgrade in workers rights in a generation to improve security, fairness and respect at work!

Today I spoke in favour of a number of amendments to the Assisted Dying Bill. Fundamentally, I do not believe the safeguards in the Bill can protect people from coercion. I remain opposed to the Bill and will vote against at 3rd Reading.

Labour introduced a Bill on Trans health care today that would do damage to the health and well-being of children. Their bill replaces science with out of date ideology. Aontú was the only party that opposed this Bill.
