My Lords, I broadly welcome this Bill, but I shall focus on the things that particularly interest me. The Government have announced that they have

Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill
My Lords, I only want to challenge the point that was made that the Bill suggests that six months is inevitable. It does not do that at all. In fact, all Clause 7 says is that if you go to the doctor, there will be a record of a preliminary discussion. I

Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill
Thank you. I checked before I left, so I am puzzled.

My Lords, I have not spoken in this debate before, but the contribution of the noble Lord, Lord Pannick, last week made me want to do so. He reminded us that:

My Lords, I was born a Jew and I am proud to be a Jew, albeit a non-practising one. This has been an amazing debate, and I want to pay tribute the right reverend Prelate—I did not think I would be paying tribute to a a Jewish one—for an amazing speech. T

Public/Private Partnerships: Shares
My Lords, I have had some experience of this, given that my union was involved when BT was privatised in 1984. That was a successful public/private partnership; it is a shame that today there is such scepticism. Of course, it requires the Government to b

My Lords, are the Government aware that we have a serious vaccine crisis in this country? It started with Covid. There is a lot of disinformation. Measles, mumps, rubella and a number of other vaccines are vital. We are well below the safety thresholds i

My Lords, I perhaps take a slightly different view on this. Of course, I welcome people being able to get their winter fuel payments. We are still applying the pension credit, which is absolutely right. I do not know what everybody else in this House who
