This hasn't been rushed and we're still in the middle of deciding about it. It now goes to the House of Lords and then almost certainly comes back to the House of Commons, so expect at least another couple of years before a decision is reached.
I watched a bit of the debate on TV and thought it was Parliament at its best. MPs from all sides were actually talking and listening to each other. They talked about their own personal experiences and that of their constituents, and some of them changed their minds based on what they had heard. And that happened both ways. There wasn't any pantomime shouting and jeering and it was a serious debate by grown-up people.
