Summarization
Prue Leith and Danny Kruger, mother and son, have a disagreement over the right of terminally ill people to choose assisted dying. Prue Leith believes that everyone should be able to make their own decision, while her son objects to the idea. They have both taken a Death Road Trip to the US to learn more about the issue and gain a better understanding of each other's perspectives. Prue Leith has made it her mission to bring the inhumane laws on assisted dying to the attention of millions of people, and the British public largely agree with her. Prue and Danny's differing views are rooted in personal experiences and the death of a loved one for each of them. Though there are some, such as palliative care specialists, who oppose the idea, supporters are adamant that everyone should have the choice to decide for themselves.

| 1625074687255404545 | "If you’re terminally ill - and in enormous pain - all this talk of ‘sanctity of life’ is a sort of mockery. It’s YOUR life." We couldn’t agree more @PrueLeith You can watch Prue and Danny’s Death Road Trip on @Channel4 on Thursday at 9pm. https://t.co/vIeM7AWa7V | 78 |
| 1624689939353853963 | "Switzerland, suicide, or suffering? I think that's a lousy choice." @PrueLeith gets to the very heart of the issue - the current law fails dying people. #YesToDignity https://t.co/xkFMQrjReK | 33 |
| 1626319762983723009 | "I think everybody should think about death, even if it's just to make them appreciate life." Well said @PrueLeith Watch Prue and Danny's Death Road Trip tonight at 9pm on @Channel4 https://t.co/VxX3mOYG4B | 33 |
| 1626333475690225665 | .@PrueLeith spot on about the inequality in this debate: “I'm not asking Danny to have an assisted death. I'm asking him to let me!" Lawful @dignityindying will change precisely nothing for those who oppose it, but would change everything for dying people who want the choice. | 25 |
| 1626195181111312384 | Thank you @PrueLeith for bringing the UK's inhumane laws on assisted dying to the attention of millions. One person in the UK goes to Switzerland to die each week, and for 1000s more, this isn't an option. Each case is a tragedy and failure of Government. https://t.co/RyybmWeyIc | 24 |
| 1624797897521786882 | This is a good article. But as a palliative care dr, the description of @PrueLeith’s brother David’s pain relief is distressing. This is not good palliative care. It worries me that ppl will read this article and think uncontrolled pain is inevitable at the end of life. It isn’t. https://t.co/EmLyOqKYwV https://t.co/zdWw3XbWUj | 21 |
| 1626144647671078917 | Tonight 9pm: Prue and Danny’s Death Road Trip Having watched her brother die a terrible death from cancer, @PrueLeith believes that every dying person should have the right to decide how they die. The vast majority of the British public agree with her. https://t.co/fc6yobjs4m | 20 |
| 1626246564569051136 | "I wouldn't administer that, and I'd be very uncomfortable doing that if it's ever legalised." @PrueLeith and her son, Tory MP @danny__kruger, talk to palliative care consultant Dr Carol Davies about her worries about legalising assisted dying in the UK. https://t.co/3PrmuE4TL8 | 19 |
| 1626206899048787969 | Will a trip across North America help @PrueLeith & her son @Danny__Kruger resolve their differences on an incredibly divisive topic, assisted dying? Watch Prue and Danny's Death Road Trip tonight at 9pm. https://t.co/IZs3iSipAh | 19 |
| 1624709663009669122 | I agree with @PrueLeith that terminally ill people should have the right to choose assisted dying. A good death is so important and so many don’t have that even with good palliative care. I hope that @Liam4Orkney’s Bill becomes law in Scotland. | 13 |

| 1626341000351297537 | “Can you on my behalf THANK @PrueLeith As a retired nurse everything she said is true. I sobbed after I hear her as I have just witnessed a beloved cousin experience a long unnecessary, undignified death. She was a beautiful human being aged 56 and deserved better.” | 65 |
