>Zara was a young teenager when she was investigated by the police after a stillbirth at 28 weeks, accused of illegal abortion. Her phone and laptop were confiscated during her GCSEs, and the distress of the investigation drove her to self-harm. The investigation only concluded when, over a year later, the coroner found that the pregnancy had ended as a result of natural causes

Three years later, on the eve of her trial for illegal abortion – after her name, address, photographs and medical history had been widely published – prosecutors said they had no evidence to achieve a conviction and accepted that she had told the police the truth from the start.

House of Lords backs abortion up to birth is the more accurate title.
Slippery slope proven right yet again.

Cool..
No reason to still have the House of Lords though.

I think you need to understand both sides of an argument to have a well informed opinion.
I’ve understood both sides, in my opinion there’s no wrong or right answer, it’s a moral issue
And I fully support abortion
I completely get where people against it are coming from, I understand the moral issue of it, and I just don’t care enough about unborn kids to make woman have to suffer through an unwanted pregnancy

I’m on two minds with this.
Abortion should be free, easy to obtain and not criminal up until a certain point. After which it should be illegal.
You should be able to call your doctors and arrange an abortion as easy as any other appointment, and it should be one appointment and sorted.
But to decriminalise it entirely is wrong. It de-facto legalises abortion up until birth.

It’s not decriminalising abortion, it’s decriminalising abortion up to the point of birth for any reason.
So a healthy baby could be aborted at full term and the mother could not be prosecuted. If the baby had been born it would be murder. The development is basically identical, it’s just whether they are inside or outside the womb.
Unfortunately we know that there are illegal sex abortions happening in the UK; we may well get fully developed baby girls killed for being the wrong sex.

A terrible decision.
It just encourages people to misuse abortion pills dangerously instead of changing how they are prescribed to ensure they are only given within reasonable limits.
Not to mention the fact that it also encourages people to kill a child well after the point of viability.
That should have remained criminal.
