Today we pick up a number of stories and updates in the conversation around assisted suicide. Long since legal in a growing number of states in the US, a new report has detailed how things are liberalising further. Some states now permit non-residents to cross state lines solely to die, creating a new market in euthanasia tourism for those living in less liberal parts of America. Meanwhile, there are new attempts by activists to legalise assisted suicide in England, and the new Labour government has pledged to allow a free conscience vote by all MPs on the issue soon. How should believers respond to this, and is there any real prospect of Christian healthcare workers winning the right to not only opt out of assisted dying procedures, but to set up their own independent euthanasia-free clinics, hospitals and hospices?
