Very strongly agree

No

Family First has consistently opposed euthanasia and assisted suicide, believing in the sanctity of life. This is in line with their conservative and Christian values. Their opposition was evident in 2016 when Family First Senator Bob Day opposed a bill that would have allowed the Northern Territory and ACT to legislate on euthanasia.
