We aren't talking about abortion really in this context.
We should be honest and we should be frank.
We're talking about infanticide.
That's what this has become.
We're talking about the deliberate taking of viable life.
Now, frankly, the viability isn't really the most substantive issue here, because if we use viability as a standard, then by that mechanism or by that metric, a person who's being sustained on a life support system and it wasn't viable, then their life counts for nothing either.
So it isn't the standard.
But it is used in this debate and it's used wrongly and it's used very, very misleadingly because what we're talking about here is without question as close as you can get, if not an actual case of infanticide.
And I should also say on the question of prosecutions, number one, the police having a legal requirement to investigate and look into this does not
on hardly any occasion ever lead to a prosecution.
Prosecutions of women are vanishingly rare.
In the one recent case where there was actually a successful prosecution, I think the sentence was somewhere like 30 or 40 days.
So we're not talking about very, very strict implementation of this or women being sent to prison and spending years in prison.
The prosecution service and the police do take a very broad view of this, but it's the principle that matters.
Well, legally it is permitted.
Sorry, legally it is prohibited.
Within the Abortion Act, which, by the way, was passed in 1967 in the UK and has been in force ever since, abortion was supposed to be very tightly controlled and very tightly regulated.
The reality has been the exact opposite.
It is very, very permissive.
One of the grounds which it is prohibited is for the gender selection of the child.
