Scotland's assisted dying bill rejected after emotional debate - Lemmy.World

Really thought it stood a chance this time.

It’s a shame that Westminster rejected theirs tbh. It seemed to have promise there and it would have covered the entire country
Westminster still debating, there is a chance that they get it in in time. But it isn’t looking good
I have a feeling they are going ti run the clock out on it

It’s a shame, I don’t get why they decided to torpedo a bill with such widespread public support

Edit: oh, it’s the lords blocking it

Gutted. Good riddance to this lot in May. It has been debated for 20 years. The risks do not outweigh the benefits!
Tragic. Nobody deserves to continue to suffer because of their government
Really disappointed in this outcome.
