  • ‘UK’ Parliament kills the Assisted Dying Bill: Now begins its own slow, agonising death.

    The passage through the ‘UK’ Parliament since the June 2025 vote in favour of the well thought out, common sense, logical, pragmatic, biologically aligned, majority public supported Bill to the 11th September 2026 ‘defeat’ in the same Parliament provides a useful snapshot of the State of Constitutional Chaos in the ‘UK’ of the present time.

    June 2025 to September 2026 is one calendar year change, or Solar year with that being the time it takes for Earth (the spinning mass of rock and molten material with a little layer of earth and water along a varied topography on its surface, and what used to be thick ice at the poles, held in place by the gravity of Sol and motion, for Earth moves very fast), and plus one quarter of a Solar year as making three months, so one year of Sol and one quarter year. In the 4.5 billion years of Earth spinning in space, this is not much. So the question is, how does the same Parliament make a different vote in such a short space of time?

    The Private Members Bill of 2025 brought by Kim Leadbeater, a Labour MP, being talked out by the House of Lords in the last Parliamentary session – a purely human construct – was catastrophic enough for the Parliament of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. That the HoL took it upon itself to be greater than Parliament creates a constitutional crisis.

    In March 2025 the Tynwald (Parliament of the Isle of Man) passed its Assisted Dying Bill, with the Upper House making a few amendments, as is the role of such a process, sorting them out, and passing the Bill.

    In February 2026 the government in Jersey, the Channel Islands, passed its own Assisted Dying Bill. This blog is interested in governance as a principle and government as the action, so the name of a Parliament is actually irrelevant. It’s the function which is relevant. And in 2026, i.e., within the year of Sol, it had received Royal Assent, and within half a year of Sol.

    Why does such a Bill require Royal Assent?

    Why was the Isle of Man Bill delayed? Because the UK Parliament believed the unwritten elements of protection did not meet the European Convention on Human Rights, under which they must be stated. And in the Isle of Man where life is close to the real facts of life, such detailed statements would likely not be required because under this practical Bill only the logical outcome would happen. And that is a person entering the last stages of a one-way, terminal illness, and themselves not wishing to go through hell or put those around them through hell. The logic is so obvious that in places where governance is functional, such endless adherence to artificial Conventions would never be considered. But the Isle of Man has been put through the hoops. The ‘UK’ Ministry of Justice requires there to be absolutely no coercion, because mainland Britain sees nothing but coercion. On the Isle of Man, life is more practical and people who are in the last period of their life, facing a bad end, are believed. So as yet, no Royal Assent for the Isle of Man.

    And back in the Westminster Parliament, another Private Member’s Bill, from another Labour MP, now Lauren Edwards. The same Bill – exactly the same logical, factual, well worded Bill – was back in Parliament after the House of Lords had taken constitutional matters into their own hands, but this time we have a new Prime Minister. And that same Bill is now killed in the Parliament by the MPs themselves.

    One clear reason was given that the MPs voting against the Bill, killing it, believed those not wishing to face the inevitable bad death only wanted a peaceful passing because there was not enough money given to social care. The curious thing is that the last two Private Members Bills were brought by Labour MPs, yet it is the Labour Party which pumps up the balloon of the State to the point now where everything is about to burst. The Labour Party are in power in the ‘UK’, and the new Prime Minister, rather than taking the opportunity to grasp hold of this matter, of which the majority of the public are in favour, has managed to steer it firmly towards his own agenda of ‘social care’, whatever that means. And when it is boiled down, it means nothing at all.

    The violent hatred of groups like Care not Killing who believe the Assisted Dying Bill would have continued through those nearing a bad end and started on disabled people, whatever that means, elderly people, whatever that means, and generally become a force for bad in society, are jubilant no doubt. The House of Lords must be happy it showed how much power it has over Parliament, and those who vocalised in Parliament against the latest Private Members Bill have stated that ‘when social care is properly financed then they might think about the Assisted Dying Bill,’ but this is all hostage to the wrong thing.

    End of life is end of life, the biology shows it, and on the planet Earth, circling around Sol every 365 days give or take a few seconds, and in that time itself spinning 365 times to give night and day, nothing has changed for human reality. We are born, we live, we die. This blog being a polytheist blog writes from the perspective of body and spirit and gods, but for the body, we die. The life force leaves the body.

    The giant tortoise is the longest living land animal, and one giant tortoise living on Saint Helena is believed to be about 190 years old. Some sea creatures which are living but not active lives of waking and sleeping and moving around a lot, like coral for example, can be very, very old, but they will still die sometime. There is no medical systems, no drug companies, no World Health Organisation, and no supermarkets in the natural world. Everything is living and dying into the natural world, both eating each other and enabling each other in the beautiful network which is Life itself. And now within the ‘UK’ constitutional powers, Jersey inhabitants can partake of natural processes, and Royal Consent confirms the validity of both the legal process and the practice. It cannot be long before the Isle of Man follows the logical function of government.

    Alas for the Westminster Parliament and the House of Lords, and all those organisations and vocal disabled people who believed they ‘would be killed’, the chaotic last Solar year and a quarter under which human biology has not changed, the clarity of those wishing to avoid a bad and inevitable end has not changed, the bones and muscles and neural networks of government have lost their connection. Biology creates an entity, and societal cohesion of bees and ants and seagulls and beavers is not in any written statute or a centralised building, but exists as much a part of existence as the biology itself. It can be seen as natural laws, because laws of any sort regulate the subject matter. The biology is indivisible from the societal network, and a societal network is underpinned by laws.

    Such is history in western Europe, we are where we are, but if the biological facts of life remain the same, a human is born and it dies, but it’s societal network is dictated by a structure which is neither part of the real natural world, and now correlate neither with the citizen body nor the real facts of existence, governed by Sol, Helios, an ghrian, then what happens from here as Parliament begins its slow and public demise.
