Scotland: Parliament votes that you don’t own yourself, they own you

Source: Politico

“Scottish lawmakers on Tuesday evening rejected a bill allowing [sic] terminally ill adults to access assisted dying. Members of the Scottish Parliament (MSPs) opposed Liberal Democrat Liam McArthur’s legislation which would have given [sic] terminally ill adults with fewer than six months to live assistance to end their lives. The bill fell by 69 votes to 57, with Scottish Health Secretary Neil Gray abstaining. MSPs previously backed the initial principles of the bill and allowed it to progress through the parliament last May by 70 votes to 56.” (03/18/26)
