UK politicians have voted against legalizing assisted dying for terminally ill people again, by 286 votes to 270.
The legislation was passed in a landmark vote in the lower house of parliament last year before being struck down in the unelected upper house.
The bill would have allowed adults in England and Wales who have been given less than six months to live and can clearly express a wish to die to opt for euthanasia.
