Rhoda Grant, a former Labour Member of the Scottish Parliament (MSP), has called for Labour Party MPs to unite in voting down Lauren Edwards’ assisted suicide Bill, rather than reopen and deepen yet more divisions under the new Prime Minister.
Writing in The Times newspaper, Scotland edition, Grant said that the issue of assisted suicide “has already exposed profound divisions within Labour, which will deepen if this debate drags on for another year” following the reintroduction of the assisted suicide Bill by Lauren Edwards, in addition to widening the divisions between the Labour Party in England and Scotland.
