England legalizes assisted suicide with promise of no abuse | Blaze Media: 

Candidates for government-assisted death would have to be over 18 and live in England or Wales. Members of Parliament have voted to pass legislation that makes assisted suicide legal in England and Wales. The new legislation will allow for the death of those in the two countries who are over the age of 18 and are registered with a general practitioner for at least 12 months. The bill passed with a vote of 330 to 275 and will allow patients to expect to be killed within six months of their request.
