Absolutely - the failure to pass the #AssistedDying bill is an abject betrayal by a few mostly religious zealots of the vast majority of the public who support the bill.
Watching my Mum slowly dying makes me even more in favour of #AssistedDying
If I showed her last year what this year was going to be like for her, she would be absolutely horrified!
On Sunday in A&E she kept saying ‘Just let me die’, now she doesn’t even know she’s still alive.
Following another fall my Mum is back in hospital.
She has two bleeds on her brain, mild dementia, her sight and hearing are failing and she’s very unhappy.
This is what those who oppose the #AssistedDying Bill want.
Well fuck you all! You’re making an elderly woman cry with desperation.

…against the Bill) so instead, I hope you get to experience the indignity of having to have someone feed you, wipe your bum and take care of your personal hygiene needs.
Because it’s thoroughly degrading!

To those who’ve tried to scupper the #AssistedDying Bill.
I thought about hoping you would get to see first hand what it’s like for a loved one to suffer the indignity of being kept alive, and the pain that can be experienced, but then I thought that’s not fair on them (unless thy too were… (1/2)

Finding it hard to be rational while watching and listening to the filibustering of this small coterie in the Lords who are determined to see the #AssistedDying Bill fall by endlessly putting forward ludicrous and vacuous arguments.
A Spanish woman dies by euthanasia after a long legal battle with her father.
Noelia Castillo, who had conducted a long legal battle with her father for the right to end her life, died on Thursday.

An incredibly poignant story. I feel that most people in Spain are debating with compassion and understanding for Noelia, despite catholicism's relentless grip on society and the controversy of her decision. #Noelia #euthanasia #Spain #dignityindeath #assisteddying . elpais.com/sociedad/202...

One of the MSP to reject the Assisted Dying Bill in Scotland even, blocking the wishes of 80% of Scots

Picture of Fraser Sutherland speaking into a microphone with text below reading: “We are heartbroken by tonight’s decision by MSPs. But this debate doesn’t end here. Assisted dying laws for terminally ill people are in place all around the world. They pose no risk to vulnerable and disabled people."

Baroness Blackstone is right. There would have been another chance at Report Stage to return to issues and table amendments. But if every point is dragged out now, we may never get there.
Terminally ill people deserve better than this.

Scotland has rejected assisted dying legislation for the third time. MSPs voted 69 to 57 against Liam McArthur's bill after an emotional late-night debate at Holyrood. Polling shows 78% of Scots support change. The fight continues.

At this pace, it would take over 20 years to get through all the amendments.
That’s not scrutiny - that’s filibustering. 👇

There is nothing that speaks worse of a society than refusing a good death to people desperate to get it.
I'm not for torture.
Religious crap is only for those who share it. They can die in agony if they choose to.
#AssistedDying must be a right.
Well, Scotland has nothing to feel proud of after voting NO to #AssistedDying. If that's not reactionary...
#AssistedDying is the RIGHT to a good death.
You're not governing for the good of the people, #Starmer.
You'll never get my vote.

I hope the assisted dying ruling changes in the future.
There's people out there that need assisted dying.
People with cancer that can't be cured, people with severe MND, people who don't have much time to live need it.
I understand the religious side of things tho.
