Lord David Frost has warned how legalising assisted suicide could ultimately dismantle the entire “inherited ethical” framework of the UK.
Speaking during the second day of debate in the House of Lords, Lord Frost argued that “the ultimate destination” that the Bill will lead to is a land of “utilitarianism” in which “none of us” would be safe.
“Now what we are proposing to do in this Bill, is to dismantle part of that inherited ethical system by allowing the State to engage in killing innocent people at their request,” Lord Frost said in the House of Lords on 19 September.
