..."Keir Starmer’s Labour ... 3 March 2025 ... "confirmed that it plans to farm out its ‘assisted dying’ programme to private companies who will operate them for profit. In the latest version of the plan, any corporate killings would be:

- cannot be sued by families of those killed
- In addition, if the bill becomes law, the government would have to wait at least five years before reviewing how the legislation is working.

..."In January, right-wing Labour MP Kim Leadbeater’s committee supposedly putting together the safeguards to prevent abuse of her ‘unfit for purpose‘ assisted dying bill was rightly criticised for voting to hold key discussions in secret, avoiding public scrutiny and raising serious doubts about her original claims that there would be full transparency in the debate and ample safeguards to protect vulnerable old and sick people from pressure to die.
In February, Leadbeater announced that the assisted suicide process would now not, as at first promised, require sign-off by a High Court judge – instead only needing approval by a social worker or psychiatrist"...
