Petition Hold a referendum on assisted dying

We believe a referendum on assisted dying is necessary to ensure that a decision of such profound moral, ethical, and societal importance reflects the informed will of the public, rather than being debated by parliament and appearing to be filibustered by the House of Lords.

More details

We are fed up with what seems to us to be the House of Lords deliberately delaying the current bill which is now likely to fail.
