While the Sky News Daily is on a Christmas break we’re replaying you some of the most memorable episodes we recorded in 2024. Including our episode which discusses how we choose to die in the UK.
In November the assisted dying bill began making its way through parliament.
If it passes, it will make it legal for adults who are terminally ill, to be given medical assistance to end their own life. It sparked a national conversation – not just about assisted dying, but about how we die in the UK.
On the Sky News Daily we spoke to Dr Rachel Clarke, a pallative care doctor, about what we can all do to make death less taboo and what a ‘good’ death looks like here in the UK.
