The APMJ Conference 2026: Kaleidoscope of Care – Innovation for Everyone is taking place this Sunday, 27 September and there are still places available!
I want my MP to see this. MRP polling for Camborne and Redruth shows 61% agree with Andy Burnham: fix care before considering assisted dying. Only 18% disagree. @perran4crh, please listen to your constituents & vote NO on 11 September. polling.theotherhalf.uk/cons…

You spend millions every year so well paid MP's and Lord's can get subsidised alcohol at work.
There are 27 alcohol serving taxpayer subsidised bars and restaurants in the UK.
ALL of them in Westminster.
It's time to make it 0.
Like/RT if you agree.

Really worth doing this - if you send a letter to your MP it will include details of MRP polling extent to which their constituents prioritise assisted dying compared to other issues (it's low salience across the board)
Assisted dying campaigners are trying to bring back the assisted dying bill.
Be a voice for vulnerable women. Please ask your MP to oppose the Bill being brought back.
Just click the link - it takes 60 seconds:

You may like to sign this letter asking MPs not to bring back the so called "assisted dying" bill. This bill is very poorly drafted and it would change our society and health care service as we know it.

It’s simple, treat hospital doctors fairly, we work for a monopoly employer. Since 2008 average workers pay up 68%, consultants only 30%. Our comparator professions up 79%. We’re effectively working for more than a quarter of the year for free compared to 2008.

Our letter on Assisted Dying in the @ObserverUK today: "In some areas, there are no district nurses available overnight to support people at the end of life"

The lack of end-of-life care is the problem.
NOT the lack of assisted deaths.
