Assisted suicide 'supported' by religious Britons

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-22362736


The majority of British people who follow a religious faith support the law being changed to allow assisted suicide, research suggests.

Overall 70% of those questioned said they backed a change in the law, with 16% opposing it.

YouGov conducted an online poll of 4,437 British adults for the organisers of the Westminster Faith Debates.

A public debate on assisted suicide is being held by that group in London.
