Lord Falconer of Thoroton (Lab)

Speaking in the House of Lords on 30 January 2026

Debate

Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill

Contribution

The Motion said that more time should be given so that we could complete the stages of the Bill so that it would have sufficient time to get back to the Commons. I was particularly impressed during that debate by what my friend, the noble and learned Baroness, Lady Butler-Sloss, said—that we have to “get through” this. We are not getting through it.
