Briefly

Over 250 campaigners argue that if enacted, the bill could legitimize assisted death for individuals suffering from eating disorders, as it contains loopholes similar to laws in other countries that have faced similar criticisms. Campaigners are urging MPs to vote against this potentially harmful legislation.
