The best news of the year. My fatherland will not now become a destination for death tourism, and the monies that it would have spent on the means of death should be transferred to the means of life.
69 to 57 was not even that close. There are all sorts of possible explanations for the fact that Labour voted 17 to three against, but it cannot be gainsaid as a fact. Foysol Choudhury and Pam Duncan-Glancy, who with Jeremy Balfour made the two best speeches of a superb debate, also voted against, meaning that this Bill received the votes of only three MSPs who had been elected on the Labour ticket.
Though the SNP voted 37 to 22 in favour, the 22 included John Swinney, Humza Yousaf and Nicola Sturgeon, and they voted with all three of the Independents to be have been returned for their party. But the Greens were all in favour, in the spirit of Paul Ehrlich. Cooperation with the Greens is possible on individual issues. But they are not us.
