Since @Keir_Starmer made a promise to have assisted suicide debated in Parliament, perhaps he can now make another promise? That he & his MPs will watch my @BBC @OpenUniversity doc 'Better Off Dead?' to hear why so many of us are terrified of these laws? https://t.co/KOoAi5m7Jz

I made my BBC documentary Better Off Dead? to explain why me & many other disabled people oppose legalising assisted suicide. Some of us have very real fears based on our lived experience & based on what has happened in other countries where it's legal. https://t.co/KOoAi5m7Jz

Caring isn’t just my family's story, it is the story of millions, caring for each other, dealing with tough times, and keeping going with love. Sharing our story hasn't been easy, but it's important. It's time to bring carers' experiences into the light. https://t.co/osj0bh33QI

Living in the wasteland and becoming Praetorian Jack in #Furiosa was no easy feat, but having a co-star like Anya Taylor-Joy made it a little easier for Tom Burke. See what Burke had to say: https://t.co/wJRzDG4A6F
