Assisted dying: MPs prepare to decide as assisted dying vote draws near
YouTube video by Sky News Assisted dying: MPs prepare to decide as assisted dying vote draws near

πŸ”΄ WATCH: As the vote on assisted dying approaches, MPs have just days to decide how they’ll vote.

Whilst some have made their minds up, many are conflicted and still unsure.
