MPs Reject Assisted Dying Bill
MPs voted against legalizing assisted dying in England and Wales during the bill's second reading, effectively preventing its enactment before the next election. The vote was 286 to 270 in favor of blocking the legislation, reversing previous support for a similar bill approved in the last parliament. The proposed law aimed to allow terminally ill adults with less than six months to live to end their lives with medical approval, but concerns over social care and procedural delays contributed to its rejection.
