Palliative care doctor criticises assisted dying vote

Palliative care doctor Dr Rachel Clarke has criticised MPs' decision to back assisted dying legislation in England and Wales.

She accused the government of neglecting care funding, saying it prioritises making death easier over improving lives.

Clarke called the move shameful, arguing that the lack of investment in care services undermines the dignity and quality of life for those in need.
