On Tuesday of next week, the House of Commons rises for the summer. It will remain valuable and important to keep making contact with your MP, but with many away over this period, this will be the last of these four weekly notices to you. Thank you for the support you've made clear in recent weeks, especially but not exclusively to those of you who have been in touch to let us know how you've been getting on with your MPs, and to those of you who have donated to our work.
This has been a busy week. On Tuesday, constituents and MPs came together at the Parliamentary lobby day to voice opposition to a bill which would endanger the place of disabled and seriously ill people in our society. On Thursday morning, the European Court of Human Rights rejected as 'manifestly ill-founded and... inadmissible' the appeals of Jane Nicklinson and Paul Lamb, following the ruling of the UK Supreme Court last year. And we have also this week, following reports of daughters seeking to raise money to fund their mother's death at Dignitas, had cause to reflect on the place of Motor Neurone Disease in the assisted suicide debate.
This debate won't stop for anyone, and if you haven't already done so, please visit and share www.carenotkilling.org.uk/Bill2015 so that you and your friends can appeal to your MP to attend the 11 September debate on Rob Marris's bill - which has still not been published - and oppose draft legislation which is uncontrollable, unethical and unnecessary.
