The Assisted Dying Bill will be scrapped is next week, despite the will of the elected House of Commons.
Because of filibustering by a small number of peers in the unelected House of Lords, the bill will fall at the end of this session when Parliament is prorogued.
For me, this is not what democracy should look like.
I spoke to the @ObserverUK about why I would bring it back, despite having opposed it:

@JamesTre05@TheEventGB@PolitlcsGlobal@ABC My point isn't that Ukraine were winning, my point is trump claims this is a win when it isnt. You dont win a war by surrendering. He has forced Ukraine to surrender territory. Trump keeps working for putin and people like you lap it up.
