BREAKING: The Assisted Dying Bill passes second reading.

YES - 330
NO - 275

I'm pleased. I felt far too many of those against were basing their opposition on religious faith. That's no way to run a railroad.

Choo choo train 🚆

What next?

Committee stage.

I’d hope that suitable, sensible things are fine to it now. I worry that some of the Lords Spiritual may try to harm it.

They will probably, although they can only delay it.

Appalling.

Good news

This is a small victory for common sense.

Excellent result and a far bigger margin than I'd hoped for. More hurdles ahead, of course, but a great start. Very happy with this.

Very close. I'm not surprised as it's such a difficult issue.

Very good news after my crappy day.
