Labour — Monmouthshire

Speaking in the House of Commons on 17 June 2025

Debate

Crime and Policing Bill

Contribution

I urge the hon. Lady to rethink what she is saying. There is nothing in new clause 1 that refers to abortion up until term. There would be no change to the abortion law—absolutely no change at all. We are not saying aborted to term, and it is extremely harmful for her to say that.
