Our thanks to Jeff for this. An extract:
“The Crime and Policing Bill now being debated in the House of Lords is a lengthy and important piece of legislation, which has been detaining peers, in our capacity as a revising chamber, for the past two and half months.
Most of the country, however, will be unaware that a clause, unrelated to this bill, had been sneaked in via an amendment in the name of the Labour MP Tonia Antoniazzi, after just 46 minutes of backbench debate in the House of Commons.
This is Clause 191, entitled ‘Removal of Women from the criminal law related to abortion’. It removes all remaining legal invigilation of women regarding abortion, allowing a mother-to-be to abort her baby, up to full term, for any reason at all, including its sex. [J4MB emphasis.]
This clause passed the Commons without any evidence, scrutiny or public consultation. It is a reckless and radical proposal, with implications both for the mental and physical health of the mother, and disastrous consequences for the child.”

A woman’s body, a woman’s choice.
But I thought the interests of the child were paramount.
Something doesn’t add up here.

The wishes of women trump everything, even innocent human lives. That’s feminism in a nutshell.

Scary. Contrary to what is believed Abortion is illegal here unless certain conditions are met. These are basically reliant on the Medical Profession’s judgement (two different MDs) about the risks to the baby and mother. Of course what has happened is the provision for mental health has become so misused that a bit of upset is taken to mean a huge risk to the mother’s menta health. But it remains the Law. As the Baroness points out this sneaked in clause renders the existing Law completely toothless, and pointless.
It is indeed an example of feminism’s complete disregard for the lives of children, except as a “bargaining tool” in Divorce where they also want to remove fathers from their children’s lives ……… yet simultaneously demand fathers “do more” to free mothers to have careers. Given the latter surely feminists should insist the father of the unborn child be given the option to “step up” and be a full time father to “free” the woman from any responsibility for her unwanted child, without killing it.
