Roberts is also the author of an acclaimed 2018 biography of the British War World II Prime Minister, Winston Churchill. It was heartening to hear Toby Young, also a Conservative peer, make a powerful speech against assisted suicide. “It is providing terminally ill patients with these opportunities that makes the work of people in hospices so rewarding. Ultimately, it is Christianity, with its belief that humanity is created by Almighty God in His image and that we are not the result of evolutionary chance, which stands in the way of assisted suicide.
