express.co.uk

A vote on assisted dying legislation is set for Friday, with many MPs still undecided. The outcome could significantly impact the future of the bill, which has faced fluctuating support. Former Prime Minister David Cameron has expressed support for the bill, but he will not vote. Current tallies suggest 196 MPs may support the legislation, while 147 oppose it. Around 150 MPs remain undecided, and about 25 are expected to abstain. This uncertainty leaves the final result too close to call, as undecided MPs could influence the outcome.
