YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Kim Leadbeater has told Sky News she is "nearly in floods of tears" after MPs voted in favour of advancing legislation that would legalise assisted dying in a historic parliamentary vote.

The Labour MP's Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill received 330 yes votes compared to 275 noes at its second reading in the House of Commons - a majority of 55.

Speaking to Sky's political editor Beth Rigby, Ms Leadbeater said it has been "a really emotional process", adding: "I'm incredibly proud; I think today we've seen parliament at its best."
