The Labour MP behind the UK’s proposed assisted dying legislation has asked critics not to kill her Bill in the parliamentary process before MPs have a chance to vote.

Kim Leadbeater told The Independent she understood she had “weeks and weeks” of work ahead after the  Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill committee scrutinised the proposal line-by-line.
