ASK YOUR MP TO STOP ABORTION UP TO BIRTH BEING INTRODUCED – Diana Johnson and Stella Creasy have tabled amendments to the Criminal Justice Bill that would make extreme changes to our abortion laws. Both amendments would make it more likely that babies are aborted at home for any reason, up to birth.
