Speaking in the House of Lords on 12 December 2025

Debate

Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill

Contribution

When the noble Baroness, Lady Gerada—who I am delighted to welcome to this House—gave her maiden speech, she described the ideal GP, which she may well embody. I wish I knew more of them. I have friends who are GPs, but that is not the real-life experience of most people in this country. The noble Baroness said they all work in harmonious teams and she does not recognise the scenario of elderly people who cannot get to see their GPs. That statistic was from Wales—if you know anything about the Welsh NHS, I am surprised any of them get to see a GP.
