Sir Patrick will be sorely missed and remembered by all of us at Dignity in Dying for the compassion, commitment and humility he brought to his campaigning, as well as to his stage and screen work. We offer our sincere condolences to his family, friends and innumerable fans.

BREAKING: Isle of Man becomes the second Crown Dependency to legalise assisted dying.

It comes after Jersey received Royal Assent for its own Assisted Dying Bill earlier this year.

The milestone is a tribute to the Manx families who campaigned for years for a change in the law.聽

Terminally ill people in the Isle of Man and Jersey now have a choice that is denied to dying people just a short journey away in Liverpool, London or Cardiff. That is not a sustainable position.

The question for Westminster now is how much longer will dying people in England and Wales be made to wait.

We are deeply saddened by the death of Dame Esther Rantzen.

A true force of nature, Dame Esther fought throughout her life for people鈥檚 rights, and latterly for dying people who needed more choice and compassion.

Our heartfelt condolences are with her family and loved ones.
