Assisted Suicide Bill and how to oppose it

On Friday, 29 November, the House of Commons will hear the Second Reading of a bill on assisted suicide tabled by Labour MP Kim Leadbeater. Visit www.rcsouthwark.co.uk/how-to-oppose-the-assisted-suicide-bill/ for more on how to oppose this bill, which threatens the sanctity of life.

Oppose the Assisted Dying Bill

The Bishops of England & Wales are calling on all Catholics to unite in prayer and compassionate action to oppose assisted suicide (or assisted dying).

Please contact your MP to voice your opposition to assisted suicide being rushed into law on 29th November 2024. Please make every effort to express your opposition to your MP.

Vincent Cardinal Nichols has summarised the three main reasons for our opposition:

·         it is a slippery slope

·         a right to die can become a duty to die

·         being forgetful of God belittles our humanity

Please read the statement below from the Catholic Bishops of England, Wales & Scotland (hard copies available at the back of church & from the Parish Office)
