Dr. Mark Pickering, Christian Medical Fellowship: assisted dying and where ethics and politics overlap

Christian MP Tim Farron speaks to Dr. Mark Pickering, the Chief Executive of the Christian Medical Fellowship (CMF) - a group that often speaks out on contentious issues of ethics and law. They discuss assisted dying and where medics can shape policy. How does CMF differ from other groups who campaign on ethical issues and why is an expert voice needed? Tim also answers a listener's question about why there isn't much attention on the persecution of Christians in Nigeria and the Middle East. Want your question answered next week?
