MPs approve assisted dying bill despite opposition from most London representatives

MPs have approved the Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill, allowing assisted dying, with a vote of 330 to 275. This decision followed a five-hour debate in the House of Commons. In London, only 28 of the 75 MPs supported the bill. Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer voted in favor, while Health Secretary Wes Streeting opposed it. The bill will now be reviewed by a committee of MPs for detailed examination and potential amendments. Many MPs expressed concerns about improving end-of-life care before legalizing assisted dying.
