| | Commons to vote on assisted dying | |  | | Emotions are running high ahead of today's Commons debate. Credit: EPA | | It's been described by some MPs as the hardest decision of their careers.

We've spoken to four people about why this historic vote matters to them. The debate begins at 09:30 GMT and MPs are being allowed to vote freely according to their consciences. But despite weeks of intense lobbying, it's thought that dozens have yet to make up their minds. | | | | | | | | | | | | |
