A survey of more than 10,000 voters finds that few people want legalising assisted dying to be a priority for their local MP. The results show that 7% of respondents say assisted dying should be included among their local MP’s top three priorities over the next 12 months. The reporting describes this as widespread opposition to “reviving” a defeated Bill related to assisted dying, suggesting that public support for bringing the issue back for further legislative consideration remains low. The survey therefore indicates limited voter demand for action at the local-representative level on this specific policy question. No other figures or breakdowns were provided in the available reporting, and the sources do not detail the survey’s methodology, question wording beyond the priority framing, or whether support varies by region or demographic group. Overall, the outlets agree on the central finding: a small minority of voters rank legalising assisted dying as a top priority for their MPs.
