We need to ensure that the Meacher Bill fails to attract the necessary support in Parliament. We need your help to contact and persuade Peers and MPs of the dangers this Bill poses to many disabled people.
Letter writing, social and broadcast media work and direct contact with MP’s and Peers are critical.
We have drafted a letter you could use as a template to contact your MP. Please feel free to edit to suit your purposes.
BMA
The BMA is due to debate assisted suicide later this year. It is crucial that they stay neutral or, if possible, are persuaded to oppose a change in the law. We need you to engage with your GP’s and other medical practitioners to express your concerns.
This is why we need a strong campaign to defeat this latest attempt to legalise Assisted Suicide.
Peter Thomas, 47 from Birmingham says, “I’m fearful of others, including some medics, questioning why I haven’t opted for assisted suicide”.

I’ve written to my local MP but feel really strongly on this issue. Would you be happy for me to post up my letter (slightly tweaked to protect my anonymity) on my blog http://www.shaggybeastofthought.com. I’ll then make folks aware of it via Facebook.
That sounds like a great idea. Thank you
