Should patients ever be assessed for eligibility for Assisted Dying without having any face-to-face contact with doctors? Sorry, but if face-to-face consultations are not the presumed norm in the Assisted Dying Bill, then tick-box death-by-zoom would be a real threat.

💉SINISTER: “ALL DOCTORS MUST BE TRAINED IN ASSISTED DYING” Assisted suicide fanatic Baroness Gerada argues all doctors should be trained in assisted suicide so all can direct patients to a doctor who is willing to end their life. Does she not realise how illiberal this sounds?

Last week we discussed the Assisted Dying Bill - terminally ill patients should be offered specialised palliative care that can so often alleviate suffering. Too many pushing for assisted dying use the argument of intolerable pain to scaremonger. It is also chilling and galling that the NHS-run state assisted dying scheme will cost a fortune while government policies are destroying many hospices.

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.

Technical but very important: The government says it may have to rewrite NHS legislation, “modifying definitions of ‘treatment’ to include assisted dying.” Major consequences for doctors if AS becomes a “treatment”. Could they be obliged to mention it to eligible patients?

One of the reasons I voted against the Assisted Dying Bill is the systemic coercion many older people may face. Elderly people currently pay thousands per month to be in care homes. Many may feel there is a duty to save their family tens of thousands by ending their life early.

"What change would make you feel comfortable?" ＠kategarraway and @adilray discuss the Assisted Dying bill with palliative medicine consultant Dr Amy Proffitt, who says the bill should not become law as it does not contain sufficient safeguards and Dame Esther Rantzen's daughter, Rebecca Wilcox, who is backing the bill. MPs are preparing for a crucial vote on the bill to legalise Assisted Dying for terminally ill adults in England and Wales. The outcome of today's vote could mean the Bill goes through to the House of Lords, or is thrown out entirely.
