Lord Falconer’s amendment to the Coroners Bill, which would have made specific legal provision for those helping others to travel to places like Dignitas, was rejected by the House of Lords last night.
Oh, well. As Falconer admits, it’s not obvious that it’ll make all that much difference on the ground, because few, if any, have the stomach to prosecute in such cases, and it’s not a given that the public interest’d be served anyway. So the limbo continues.
