I get the feeling some MPs are voting for it because it’s “liberal” and “progressive”. But there’s no freedom in being dead if you don’t want to be. And introducing a law that @RCPhysicians @rcpsych @GeriSoc @APMPostTweets say does not protect vulnerable people isn’t progress.
I get the feeling that some MPs haven't scrutinised the #AssistedDying bill& are voting for this because they feel that Kim Leadbeater is a good egg, which undoubtedly she is. But this is NOT voting 4 your favourite act at Eurovision, this is seismic law change at breakneck speed

For MPs who are unsure and are reading more evidence against #AssistedDying. Never too late to change your mind, as @CalumMillerLD has done. This Bill is not the right way, whatever your views.
Hundreds of constituents have written to me, expressing their views on the Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill. I’ve written to them to explain the reasons for my voting decision:

A very powerful personal argument from Sir Ed Davey @EdDaveyNews
.@EdDaveyNews spells out the pressures that euthanasia legislation will place on the vulnerable. We need legislation to provide comprehensive palliative care and end of life support. Not lethal injections. Times: @Tanni_GT @thelizcarr @Live_Die_Well @timfarron @frankcottrell_b
