The right to die is about freedom don't let those who see it as a line on a spreadsheet torpedo it | Polly Toynbee
Briefly

Wes Streeting undermines the right to die debate by falsely linking funding for assisted dying to cuts in other services, offering no evidence for his claims.
The proposed assisted dying process entails two doctors validating a mentally competent patient's decision, a high court review, and a 14-day pause, risking suffering for many.
Public support for the right to die is robust, with 75% approval in a large poll; however, political hesitation remains due to internal party disagreements.
Streeting's recent opposition to the assisted dying bill contradicts governmental instructions on free-vote issues, creating uncertainty among Labour MPs about their stand.
