A renewed attempt to legalise assisted dying has been voted down by MPs in a decision that is likely to scupper the idea for a political generation, sparking anger among supporters after an earlier bill was blocked by the Lords.(议员们投票否决了再次将协助死亡合法化的尝试，这一决定很可能使该议题在未来一代人的政治生涯中难以翻身，支持者对此感到愤怒，因为此前一项法案已被上议院阻挠。)

A private member’s bill put forward by Labour’s Lauren Edwards, which would have permitted assisted dying in England and Wales in certain limited circumstances, was defeated by 286 to 270 at second reading, the first chance MPs have to vote on a measure.(由工党议员劳伦·爱德华兹提出的一项私人议员法案，原本允许在英格兰和威尔士的某些有限情况下实施协助死亡，但在二读时以286票对270票被否决。二读是议员们首次有机会对一项法案进行投票。)

After the decision some MPs cheered and hugged in the Commons chamber(下议院议事厅), while anti-assisted dying activists celebrated in Parliament Square. But supporters of the measure said a public which, according to polling, generally supports the idea would be baffled by the inability of politicians to enact it.(但该法案的支持者表示，根据民调普遍支持这一想法的公众，会对政客们无力将其立法感到困惑。)
