Seven people introducing 666 amendments including pregnancy tests for all, even men, a ban on travel and needing to appear in a public court. Absolutely shameful. I feel hurt and betrayed by our democracy

Writing in The Scotsman @cajardinemp.bsky.social makes clear that the demand for choice at the end of life isn’t going anywhere. She condemns the tiny, unelected group of Peers blocking the assisted dying Bill - calling it a “dereliction of democracy”.
