A new bill to allow people who are terminally ill to end their lives was formally introduced in the House of Commons on Wednesday, for the first time in almost a decade.

Sir Ed Davey has recalled the 'pain' of looking after his terminally ill mother when he was just a child as he called for more investment into palliative care. The Lib Dem leader told the Politics Hub with Sophy Ridge that while he welcomed a debate on assisted dying, he is 'quite sceptical' because of his own experience.
