The lord’s have made about 1200 amendments to the bill which has basically made it’s passage impossible. While I agree the bill could’ve been better put together in the first place and that, given the gravity of the subject its probably fair to assume it would attract more amendments than most, it’s still a pretty unprecedented number and I find it difficult to believe it’s vocal opponents in the lord’s are doing this entirely in good faith with no thought to ‘running out the clock’, so to speak.
The article below says the lord’s have added more amendments to this bill than any other in the last 20 years and that if they add just another 150 (which they have since the article was written) it will set a new bench mark….

Oh good.
We can carry on letting the terminally ill die in pain and terror. /s
God bothering bastards ruining it for everyone else again
They can fuck off. If I want to take my own life then I will do so. there are plenty of relatively painless methods of doing so.
And even if there were not painless methods it wouldn’t make any difference.
No member of the Lords should be allowed to piss off to Switzerland when it’s their turn to die.
7 Peers tabled over 600 amendments to slow things down… 600!

I fear living in horrible pain and dying slowly. These people should give others their dignity.
Everyday, the House of lords makes itself more irrelevant. Unelected, unaccountable and out of touch with society
Unsurprising to see politicians once again standing in opposition to the will of the people. Polling shows that the majority of British people support assisted dying for the terminally ill, and it’s time our elected representatives started to actually represent their constituents. It’s honestly embarrassing for this country that we treat our pets with more mercy and compassion than our terminally ill.
Such an underhand method to kill the bill too, Bastards.
Parliamentary sessions are changeable. They can be shorter or longer as needed because ending a session is a prerogative power of the King, advised by government.
Acting like the Bill is doomed and that’s not preventable lets the government off the hook for the things it could do to counter the tactics used by opponents in the Lords.
This could bring the lords down.
And it should. We the people voted for this. It’s over whelmingly popular and our elected representatives passed it.
This is a disgrace. It’s a constitutional crisis.
The lords need to fall. Now.
So this was stopped by the lords, who are already hated for being unelected and posh twats, now they’ve got “enjoys letting people suffer in pain” to add to that list. Bet they’d take the easy way out if they were terminally ill in agony

Meanwhile it’s just been approved in Jersey, Uruguay, New York and Illinois.
Why is the UK the only place in the world stuck when it comes to this issue?
I hope the government brings forward the bill now. I understand why they wanted to stay officially neutral but it seems like that isn’t an option at this point.
Blame religion we all know that’s the reason why the bill doesn’t pass unfortunately.
We show more humanity to animals than humans when it comes to terminal illnesses and assisted dying
I was totally pro the bill until I saw what was happening in other countries and spoke to people who work in end of life and hospice care. I still think it is ridiculous that I can humanely end the life of my dog but not people, but the safeguards aren’t there
It’s truly just barbaric we allow people to choke on their own vomit and bile while seizing and losing control of their bowels. But government knows best 👍
The writing was on the wall after it failed in Scotland.
I don’t get it. It saves pain for those who are suffering. It saves money for the nhs. And it’s peaceful. The people want it
Can’t even die in peace, on my own terms, without having to violently expel myself from existence. How horrid. We show our pets more empathy.
God forbid we allow people some fucking dignity in this country.
Nope, we’d rather force people to live, to suffer every single day and pray for death.
We’d rather throw old people into care homes and subject them to humiliation day after day, watching whatever savings or assets they had get stripped away to pay for care.
Getting old scares the absolute fuck out of me, because even If i’m ready, in my mind, body and soul, to die, this forsaken place would torture me with living.
It’s easy to blame conservatives for this, but we should really be blaming the Canadians and the Dutch. They really *are* euthanising people for depression over there. The link below is just one example.
All the shit the right-wingers said would happen, all the shit we scoffed and rolled our eyes at because *of course* it’d never happen, it all fucking happened!
How can we *possibly* argue that legalising physician-assisted suicide for the terminally ill won’t lead to 25 year olds being euthanised for depression *when it’s literally happening in Canada right in front of our eyes?!*

Good. It is a poor bill.
Labour: give us a bill that the supporters of assisted dying can get behind. Don’t keep trying to force a pisspoor, half-thought-through substitute upon us.
It was filibustered and no one should be happy about this being blocked by unelected representatives
Because everyone needs to contribute to capitalism, keep the wheel turning – no getting off
Rats
Yes. It’s much kinder for people to take it into their own hands and have their frantically worried relative break down their door and find them…
Preventing assisted dying doesn’t stop people from dying. It’s stops people from dying painlessly in peace with family who are able to be there
