Labour — Calder Valley

Speaking in the House of Commons on 20 June 2025

Debate

Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill

Contribution

I have the pleasure of sitting with my hon. Friend on the Health and Social Care Select Committee. I am well aware, as she is, that palliative care is not where it should be. That is one of the reasons I am voting against this Bill today, because we know—as my hon. Friend knows from her public health lens—that there are social determinants of health. Surely, we cannot vote for measures today that would lead to a social determinant of an early death.
