A fresh attempt to legalise assisted dying in England and Wales has been launched, with the MP behind the plan telling the BBC she wanted to "finish the job".
Lauren Edwards, the Labour MP for Rochester and Strood, said she would bring an identical bill to the one passed by the Commons last year.

Labour MP Lauren Edwards, who is reintroducing the bill, told ITV News the Lords now have an 'opportunity' to finish scrutinising the abandoned legislation
Lauren Edwards MP has confirmed that she will reintroduce the assisted dying bill as a Private Members’ Bill in the House of Commons.
Her decision reflects the strong public and cross-party support for the bill, which passed in the House of Commons this time last year.
Really pleased that my colleague Lauren Edwards is reintroducing the Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill. Terminally ill people deserve to have choice at the end of life, and I’m so pleased that Parliament will now have the ability to make a final decision on this Bill.

A jazz drummer canceled his show because he wouldn't perform under Trump's name. The regime sued him for $1M to destroy him, but a judge just threw it out and ordered the government to pay HIS legal bills: 👇 https://t.co/nBK8xWmcjb
