Zubir Ahmed

It's disappointing that colleagues didn't attend or weren't able to attend for all sorts of reasons.

We're going to be hearing from Dr Zubir Ahmed.

He said in the course of the debate, I'm more convinced than ever that our social care and palliative care systems simply are not ready to meet the demands of this bill, at least not equitably.

How do you answer that concern that the demand for this option might not be one that can be fulfilled with the system we have at present?

But for me personally, and I made this argument in my speech, having dignity in death and the access to a good death through the choice of assisted dying, as tightly drawn as it was in the bill set before Parliament today, acts as an anchor and a counterweight in that system because it then requires us to raise the quality of palliative care and adult social care.

Well, I mentioned Zubir Ahmed, a transplant and vascular surgeon.

He's also a former health minister.

A story you might not be aware of because this is an LBC exclusive.

Zubir Ahmed, someone I'm sure you know, the former health minister, has called for a forensic review of the NHS deal with Palantir.

That's worth £330 million.

After we found backlogs rose at half the trust using technology to cut waiting lists.

that they are superior beings, that they are the knights of the road, as it were.

The story I was just discussing with the health minister, the scandal involving Palantir.

Dr Zubir Ahmed was a health minister until he stepped down some months ago and he told LBC...

With companies like Palantir and other companies where we spend a lot of money, NHS money, we do need to be very, very forensic and indeed muscular about making sure we're getting value for money.

Every day, Ciarán posts a video online to share his progress, which is gathering phenomenal feedback from residents praising him for his selfless work, with tens of thousands of views online.

Last week, the local MP, Dr Zubir Ahmed, stopped by to chat with Kieran about his efforts.

Kieran added, I'm asking the public, please don't throw rubbish in.

We've had trolls coming behind us and throwing all the trolleys back in.
