Don’t let the House of Lords get away with it.

This is a critical moment for the #AssistedDyingBill.

A small handful of peers must not be allowed to block one of the most important pieces of legislation ever to have passed through the Commons.

Assisted Dying Bill breaks record for number of amendments The Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill now has 1,227 proposed amendments at Committee Stage – more than any other Bill in the history of the UK Parliament. Humanists UK and My Death, My Decision...

This is an affront to democracy and an insult to terminally ill people and their families. So many fought to get the #AssistedDyingBill through the Commons—only to be let down by peers who should have been improving it, not obstructing it. humanists.uk/2026/02/02/a...

House of Lords has ‘signed its own death warrant’ by stalling assisted dying bill, says MP Kim Leadbeater says people are ‘extremely angry’ at delaying tactics of peers as time runs out to pass bill

The behaviour of peers regarding the #AssistedDyingBill has been appalling. The House of Lords DOES NOT have the right to thwart the will of MPs and the public. Yet through time-wasting tactics, that’s exactly what a small handful of peers have done.

Failure of 'assisted dying' Bill proves The Whip Line right AGAIN If you aren’t recommending The Whip Line to everyone you know already, this should persuade you.

The Assisted Dying Bill has stalled — and it proves The Whip Line's point: you can’t rush flawed legislation through Parliament with moral pressure. Scrutiny did its job.

That pregnancy test amendment for the #AssistedDyingBill is an insult in so many ways. Yes, it's part of the nonsensical Lords filibustering, but it's also a sneaky nod to the Christian right wing anti abortion movement. @alastaircampbell2.bsky.social calling it out on @therestpolitics.bsky.social

Ed Davey voted against the #AssistedDyingBill.

But he’s criticised peers for 'undemocratic', filibustering tactics – and is calling on the PM to intervene.

We agree. The behaviour of peers has been appalling. It's further damaged the reputation of the House of Lords.

UK deaths at Dignitas at second-highest level in two decades | LBC A total of 43 people resident in the UK were recorded as having travelled to Switzerland for an assisted death in 2025

Meanwhile: Peers run down the clock on the #AssistedDyingBill, and MSPs in Scotland vote against changing the status quo... and this is it... terminally ill people forced to die abroad because UK politicians are failing them. A national tragedy.

"ASSISTED DYING LAW IS VOTED DOWN BY MSPS"

The landmark #AssistedDyingBill has been rejected by MSPs following a historic and highly emotional vote at #Holyrood.

Not sure why #ScottishParliament has ceased to represent a courageous #Scotland I'd hoped we might start in 2014. Here I am again, not recognising those who purport to represent "future Scotland" but act as #WeeFrees Scotland is back. Essential citizen autonomy of an #AssistedDyingBill was denied.

Anyone who’s watched a loved one refuse food and water to hasten death knows how unbearably painful that is. You don’t have to choose an assisted death for yourself, but everyone (who meets the criteria) within the #AssistedDyingBill should have the choice to do so.

Apprehensively following news on #AssistedDyingBill tonight. An incredibly pivotal moment will come either way, after what for some will be an incredibly difficult & emotive vote. Will there ever be enough protection against coercion? At what price does choice come? 🤔

Will Scotland be the first to legalise assisted dying? The final vote on the Assisted Dying for Terminally Ill Adults (Scotland) Bill is seen as too close to call.

With the #AssistedDyingBill cleared in the House of Commons but essentially blocked by the Lords, Scotland could very well become the first part of the UK to legalise assisted dying – although the vote is currently too close to predict.

Government backing for the #AssistedDyingBill? Not going to happen, says Nick Watt on @bbcnewsnight.bsky.social

Why not? Another example of this government’s failure. It’s popular, costs nothing and would show a focus on ‘delivery’.
