BRITAIN-POLITICS-PARLIAMENT-EUTHANASIA

A campaigner from "Dignity in Dying" holds a placard during a demonstration outside The Palace of Westminster, home to the Houses of Parliament in central London, on October 16, 2024, during a gathering in favour of the proposal to legalise euthanasia in the UK. A new proposal to legalise assisted dying in England and Wales is introduced in the UK parliament on October 16, 2024, sparking concern from senior church leaders and opponents about the implications of allowing the terminally ill to die on their own terms. Lawmakers in the House of Commons will get a free vote on Labour MP Kim Leadbeater's Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill, allowing them to vote with their conscience rather than along party political lines.
