Assisted dying campaigner calls law 'barbaric'
A Staffordshire woman has said it is "barbaric" and "outdated" that those with a terminal illness are not legally able to end their life, ahead of a debate in parliament on the issue.
Joy Munns' mother Mavis Eccleston was cleared of murder in 2019 after she and her husband both tried to take their own lives following his terminal bowel cancer diagnosis.
A parliamentary debate on assisted dying is due to take place later, after a petition secured more than 200,000 signatures in favour of a law change.
