Proceeding contribution from Paul Robert Holmes (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 11 November 2008. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Assisted Dying.
Assisted Dying
I thank my hon. Friend for giving way. He is my friend in the real world, not only in terms of the jargon that we use in discussions. However, I fundamentally disagree with him on this matter, and I am surprised that, as Front-Bench spokesman for the Liberal Democrats, he is attacking our party policy. Surely, if he votes with his conscience against assisted dying, he must accept that he is denying the consciences of other people, such as Daniel James, Christopher Pailthorpe, Debbie Purdy and Diane Pretty—
