The Isle of Man is moving ahead of England and Wales on the subject of assisted dying.
That's according to campaigner for Humanist UK Nathan Stillwell, who visited the Island to meet with MHKs ahead of today's second reading of the Bill.

Nathan adds that this isn't the first time the Island has set a good example:
