This petition was submitted during the 2015-2017 parliament
Rejected petition Arrange a referendum on Assisted Dying.
A recent public poll showed that 82% of the people polled were in favour of Assisted Dying. MPs rejected the bill in a ratio of 3 to 1. Parliament is obviously out of touch with constituents.
