My inner cynic tells me that the rushed nature of this debate, ie a short time for discussion and public consultation, leads me to think that this is another Westminster stitch up. MPs will vote against the bill as a way of simply getting the issue out of the way. The focus on the paternalistic/religious beliefs of mps is causing stress. Westminster's job is to safely channel democracy onto secure turf.
