MPs who voted in favour of the assisted dying bill have raised concerns about parts of it and want to see changes before giving it final approval. Some are worried about the bill's provisions to allow doctors to raise assisted dying as an option without the terminally ill patient having asked for it first.

Lawmakers in the U.K. have passed a controversial bill that would legalize assisted dying for terminally ill people deemed to be in the last months of their life.

There’s this fantasy that assisted dying means you take a magic potion and drift away like Sleeping Beauty. The reality is that people who are being given medical aid in dying sometimes take a long time to pass and have horrible reactions to the medication.
