Philip Nitschke on BBC HARDtalk
It is over a decade since Dr Philip Nitschke appeared on BBC HARDtalk
His interview is as relevant in 2026 as it was in 2015!
Philip is the founder and director of the pro-euthanasia group Exit International.
Philip says he believes the right to die should be recognised as a fundamental human right, rather than as a medical privilege.
“If we’re going to acknowledge the right to life, we’ve got to be able to recognise the right to dispose of that gift. And that’s a right to death,” he tells HARDtalk’s Zeinab Badawi.
In this 2015 interview on BBC Hardtalk with Zeinab Badawi, Philip Nitschke discusses euthanasia and assisted suicide.
