| Message | I don't see how this is the worst bill ever. The reason we tabled it is because, yes first and second trimester abortions are far more acceptable than late abortions but there are instances in which a late abortion is necessary. For example, if the pregnancy is dangerous or could pose mental problems to the mother. We mostly agree on the pro-choice principle, we just then think that tere are certain circumstances, albeit exceptional circumstances, in which the legislation should be extended. |
