Dame Esther Rantzen 'disappointed' no assisted dying vote

The Health and Social Affairs Committee in Parliament has made no recommendation on a vote – but votes might be coming in other places like the Isle of Man and Jersey soon.
Dame Esther Rantzen, who has stage 4 lung cancer and called for MPs to vote on assisted dying on The Today Podcast, says she is 'disappointed' a new health committee report doesn’t go that far.
