How assisted dying would work in the UK if legalised | ITV News

Sir Keir Starmer has insisted he will not put pressure on MPs ahead of the assisted dying bill, insisting they must “make their own mind up”. The bill, published in full on Monday night, says terminally ill people with less than six months left to live would need two doctors and a high court judge to sign off their assisted death. MPs will debate the bill at the end of the month, marking the first time assisted dying has been debated and voted on in the Commons in almost a decade.
