Sir Liam Fox MP calls for a change to outdated and discriminative abortion law

https://www.liamfox.co.uk/news/sir-liam-fox-mp-calls-change-outdated-and-discriminative-abortion-law


While the limit on abortion in the UK is 24 weeks gestation, for Down syndrome, it is 40 weeks, right up to full term. With cross party support I will be tabling an amendment to the Criminal Justice Bill to equalise the time limit in line with our disability and equality legislation.
