How did your MP vote on the assisted dying bill?

The assisted dying bill passed its third reading in the Commons with a majority of 23 and will now be passed to the House of Lords.

There were 314 votes in favour and 291 against.

In November, the bill passed its second reading by a majority of 55, more than twice as large as today. It then went to "committee stage", during which the wording and implications were examined in detail, and tweaked with input from experts, stakeholders and the public.

That amended bill will now be passed on to the House of Lords, where it will go through a similar process before being either passed back to the Commons with further amendments, or sent to the King for Royal Assent.

Only after both houses agree on the exact wording of the bill does it become law.

Who changed their vote since November?

A total of 56 MPs voted a different way today, compared to how they did in November. There were 11 who changed to yes, while 24 changed to no. There were also 21 MPs who voted last time who chose to abstain today.

Among those who chose to change their vote were foreign secretary David Lammy and culture secretary Lisa Nandy. Mr Lammy had voted against the bill in November, while Ms Nandy voted in favour. Both chose not to vote today.

Only one MP, Labour's Jack Abbott, voted in favour today after voting against at the second reading.

Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer has voted in favour of the bill on both occasions, as has Chancellor Rachel Reeves and former prime minister Rishi Sunak.

The health secretary, Wes Streeting, who will have a crucial role in implementing the legislation if it becomes law, has voted against the bill both times, as has Angela Rayner, the deputy prime minister, and opposition party leaders Kemi Badenoch and Nigel Farage.

Lib Dem leader Ed Davey voted against the second reading, but chose not to vote today.

The SNP again chose not to vote, as the bill will not apply to Scotland, but a majority of MSPs in the devolved Scottish parliament voted through similar proposals in its first stage last month.

They were among 43 MPs in total who did not vote this time, including the Speaker and his Deputies. That's slightly lower than the 46 MPs who abstained during the second reading vote in November.

Overall, a clear majority of Labour MPs supported the bill, while most Conservatives voted against it.

What do the public think?

Pollsters YouGov asked people if they were in favour of assisted dying or against, before November's second reading and again last month.

On both occasions, a majority said they approved of the policy becoming legal, both in principle and in practice.
