Fight the latest attempt to decriminalise abortion

MPs are launching a new push to expand our already horrific abortion laws even further. Abortion advocates in Parliament are seeking to hijack the Government’s Crime and Policing Bill to remove abortion from the criminal law.

New Clause 1, tabled by Tonia Antoniazzi MP, seeks to change criminal law so that “no offence is committed by a woman acting in relation to her own pregnancy” at any gestation.

This means that a woman who induced her abortion at home using pills (or any other method) at any stage of pregnancy, including just before natural birth, would not commit a crime.

Legalising DIY abortion up to birth will be a disaster for unborn babies and for women. There is nothing compassionate about encouraging dangerous late term abortions at home.

We must rally to defeat this evil amendment. The earliest it could be debated is 2 June, which means there is time to lobby MPs and rally public opinion. 

Please contact your MP, asking him/her to oppose and vote against Tonia Antoniazzi’s New Clause 1 to the Crime and Policing Bill.

Separately, a debate is being held on the subject of decriminalisation on 2 June in Westminster Hall. Such debates cannot change the law but raise awareness of an issue.
