The ultimate legislation of adults at the end of the life adopted by a 314-291 vote, clearing its biggest parliamentary obstacle.

The United Kingdom Parliament has voted in favor of a draft law to legalize assisted death for sick people eventually, paving the way for the country’s greatest social change in one generation.

On Friday, 314 members of Parliament voted in favor of 291 against the draft law in the House of Municipalities, the UK Lower Chamber.

The draft law will go to the upper room of parliament, the Lord House, where it will undergo months of review, but while there may be changes to the draft law, the Lords will hesitate to block a draft law that has been approved in Commons.

Sick adults eventually (end of life)“The law would give adults with competent mental, eventually ill in England and Wales with six months or less remaining to live the right to choose to complete their lives with medical help.

Those who would like the procedure would have to be signed by two doctors and a panel of experts.

Labor Party MP Kim Leadbeater, who proposed the bill, said the amendment to the law “will offer a compassionate and secure choice” for the sick people eventually.

Voting took place 10 years after Parliament last voted against allowing assisted death. In November, the previous vote on the draft aid law was 330 to 275 in favor.

According to a Youugov survey that surveyed 2,003 adults last month, which was published on Thursday, 73 percent of people supported the invoice change.

‘Kill the bill, not sick’

Outside Parliament on Friday, protesters both in favor and against legislation gathered.

They in favor of the bill -kept placards saying “My Life, My Death”.

David Walker, 82, told AFP news agency outside parliament that he supported the draft law because he saw his wife suffer for three years at the end of her life.

“That’s why I’m here because I can’t help it anymore, but I can help other people who are going through the same thing, because if you have no quality of life, you have nothing,” he said.

On the other side of the currency, those who rejected the bill held tiles saying, “Let’s care, not kill” and “kill Bill, not the sick”.

Elizabeth Burden, a 52-year-old doctor, said she was afraid that the bill could open “a flood” of people who were forced to end their lives.

“It’s a slide slope. Once we allow this. Everything will slip because patients with dementia, all patients … are vulnerable,” she told AFP.

If approved by the Lords, the United Kingdom will follow Australia, Canada and some United States states that allow assisted death.
