Speaking directly to GB News members, Dr Renée Hoenderkamp has issued a stark warning against the Assisted Dying Bill, calling it not just misguided, but dangerous.“I want to tell you today why I am totally opposed to the assisted dying bill,” she began. “Let’s call it what it is. It’s actually an assisted suicide bill.”Dr Hoenderkamp, a GP, made it clear that she believes Britain already has assisted dying - and that it doesn’t involve ending lives early. “We already have assisted dying. It’s called palliative care,” she said. “The problem that we have in the UK is not enough money goes into palliative care.”As she explained, many people simply aren’t aware of the options already available to ensure pain-free end-of-life care. “A lot of people don’t know that there is something available in palliative care… when your pain becomes so great that it can’t be managed just with pain relief – called continuous deep sedation – where you're actually given enough medication that you go into a deep sleep and you're not feeling pain. But neither are we killing you.”She emphasised that “the body will slowly die, obviously, because that’s what we all do, but we can actually make it pain free completely until the end.”
