We've had the Long Parliament, the Rump Parliament, and even an Useless Parliament. But if this parliament goes down in history, it will be as the Death Parliament. My write-up of this afternoon for @unherd. unherd.com/newsroom/assis…

“In the coming years, when abuses inevitably occur, when the public mood sours on the reality of an idea it superficially backs, each of the 314 MPs will have to account for the choice they made this afternoon.” Indeed they shall.

The UK votes to legalise abortion up to birth and euthanasia of the disabled and elderly within 3 days. Sickening. This country is finished.

History forgets most of us. For those it does remember, it reduces our lives to a single detail. In the long term, it will remember 314 MPs for voting in a shambolic assisted suicide bill. Their fate is to be remembered for the many unjust deaths they enabled.

💔On a sad day for our nation, MPs pass the assisted suicide Bill by 314 votes to 291. If the Bill becomes law, it will put the vulnerable at risk. But the fight isn’t over. Parliament remains deeply divided & the battle must continue to stop this Bill becoming law. 🧵👇

What Kim Leadbeater now promotes: blurring the difference between wanting to die & not wanting to be left alone, & using that confusion to offer euthanasia to vulnerable elderly people without terminal illnesses. No wonder @rcpsych opposes her bill & its worthless safeguards.

MSPs need to remember as they go to vote: the only sure way to stop the future expansion of AS beyond the terminally ill is not to bring in AS in the first place. Bringing it in on the basis of autonomy, & also saying only some people have an autonomous right to AS, doesn’t work.

🚨DR UK's Statement on Passing of Assisted Dying Bill We stand firmly against a law that risks pressuring Disabled people into decisions driven by lack of options rather than genuine choice. This bill could reinforce the narrative that Disabled people’s lives are less valuable.

Technically the King can refuse to grant Royal Assent. Perhaps we all start writing to him expressing our desire that he do so.
