Hundreds of British MPs have tarnished their reputations with this Bill; Danny Kruger was not one of them

As the dust starts to settle following the shock result of the UK Parliament vote on assisted suicide, the subsequent impassioned discussion has included a focus on the “heroic MPs that defended life” during the debate in the House of Commons.

Danny Kruger, Conservative MP for East Wiltshire, and an evangelical Christian, has come in for particular attention and praise for the way he tried to oppose the Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill during its Second Reading in the House.

Dan Hitchens, a former editor of the Catholic Herald, went onto the social media platform X to say that he felt that parts of Krugers speech during the debate were the best “I have heard from any living parliamentarian”.
