@ProtecttheFaith And what about those who are terminally ill, who’s deaths are excruciatingly painful, undignified and cruel? The whole ‘pro-life’ religious argument is an insult to those who simply want (and deserve) a choice.

[Sam Weston @sam_weston]

@AnnieWells2026 You moron.

[Sam Weston @sam_weston]

@buttoncupcake @RightToLifeUK But we don’t have better palliative care. I watched my Mother die a cruel, painful, undignified, death. She believed in God, but she wanted CHOICE. The religious, pro-life, argument is insulting to those who have suffered (and will continue to suffer) horrific deaths.

[Sam Weston @sam_weston]

Shame on you for voting against @JohnSwinney - You speak of ‘respect’, but for terminally ill people today’s outcome means more suffering, less choice and no dignity in death. Where, exactly, is the respect in that?

[John Swinney @JohnSwinney]

The debate on Assisted Dying @ScotParl was incredibly powerful and respectful, a credit to all who participated. I recognise that there will be people who are deeply disappointed by the outcome and others who will be relieved. It is vital we now deliver the care people need.

[Sam Weston @sam_weston]

Shame on you for voting against @HumzaYousaf! You had a chance to do better for the people of Scotland today and you chose not to. How many more people must suffer a painful, undignified death?

[Humza Yousaf @HumzaYousaf]

I can't think of a more consequential Bill on which to make my final speech as an MSP

I've immense empathy for those suffering with a terminal illness. However, I cannot in good conscience support legislation that could be abused to coerce the most vulnerable to end their lives.

Shame on you for voting against @VoteAshRegan - You had a chance to do better for the people of Scotland today and you chose not to. “Learn and do better” is cold comfort to families forced to watch loved ones die in pain, without dignity.

[Ash Regan @AshRegan_]

The Assisted Dying Bill has fallen - but this debate must leave a legacy from session 6. We urgently need fully funded, high-quality palliative care for everyone, when they need it.

We must ensure that those with disabilities are supported with necessary accommodations to fully access public life and be secure at home. Invest in research. Listen to experts.

Free votes strengthen Parliament. And once again, the limits of devolution for legislation that straddles devolved and reserved matters are laid bare. We must learn and do better for the people of Scotland.

Two cancelled Tweedbank trains in a row during peak commuting hours, bravo @ScotRail - impeccable service as always! #slowclap #scotfail

[Sam Weston @sam_weston]

@edinhelp how can I request a large/family sized replacement grey bin please? Ours has cracked. I tried the online form but it looks like a regular grey bin. Thank you!

[Sam Weston @sam_weston]

@bt_uk I’m trying to get a PAC code by messaging PAC to 65075… I first messaged at 12:34 and again at 16:17… still no reply. Please advise.

[Sam Weston @sam_weston]

Seriously @ScotRail … at least 50% of the trains I’ve had the displeasure of travelling in during the last 2 weeks have been delayed/cancelled. Sort yourselves out. Shambles. #scotfail
