David Neuberger, former president of the supreme court, stated the current assisted dying laws fail to respect personal autonomy and protect the vulnerable, supporting the law change.
Neuberger expressed confidence in Kim Leadbeater's bill, arguing that its strict terms for terminally ill individuals would not face judicial expansions or challenges.
The debate on assisted dying is intensifying as MPs prepare for a crucial vote, with some announcing a new independent commission focusing on palliative care.
Disability activists like Pam Duncan-Glancy argue that assisted dying discussions are neglecting the concerns of disabled individuals, fearing the law might increase risks to their community.
