The legislation will require two independent doctors to determine whether the person satisfies the criteria to take their own life.A judge will also take evidence from at least one doctor, and could also question the terminally ill person before allowing self-administration of the medication.

The individual would be allowed to change their mind at any time, and no doctors would be obliged to take part in the process.The law would still forbid doctors or others from ending a person’s life. If all the criteria and safeguards are met, the substance to end someone's life must be self-administered.Under the bill, a doctor may only prepare the substance or assist the individual to ingest.

The proposed legislation would also make it illegal to pressure or coerce someone into declaring they want to end their life, carrying a possible 14-year prison sentence.Leadbeater told the BBC "the status quo is not fit for purpose" and leads to "people having very harrowing, very distressing deaths - both for themselves and for their family".

Her bill could help end this by "addressing these shortcomings in the current system," she said.

Leadbeater called her plans "the strongest most robust piece of legislation on this issue in the world".Tate had described women as "intrinsically lazy" and said there was "no such thing as an independent female".

The prosecution had suggested Clifford had been motivated by the same sort of "violent misogyny promoted by Tate".However, the defence argued this material had too vague a link and was far too prejudicial.

The judge agreed it was of limited relevance and of "great possible prejudice", and that it should not be put before the jury.The court heard Louise had told friends Clifford had a "nasty temper" and behaved in an "aggressive manner".
