The debate currently taking place on the second reading of the Assisted Dying Bill in the Commons is one of the best ones MPs have conducted in recent times. It is full of vehement, passionate disagreement. But it is also well-informed, not absurdly tribal or rowdy, and a debate that focuses on scrutinising the legislation itself, rather than slinging mud at the other side’s motives. Here are the best speeches so far, as they come – on both sides of the debate.
