There are no COVID deaths, cancer deaths or any other kind of death. There are only deaths. Well done for raising this. Without counselling and a cooling period many women are pressured into abortion to save careers or relationships. It's not liberating. Far from it.

Whilst counselling is important for some, it isn’t for everyone. The alternative is not forcing all women to follow through with unwanted pregnancies. What’s your source for thinking more women are being pressured to abort rather than the opposite?

98% are done on grounds on mental health without any assessment under the MHA, no clinical assessment of any kind, and in an age distribution consistent with career pressure. Very few are teenage. Pregancies are unplanned for many. They should plan. Contraceotion is free.

Plenty prioritise their career, that’s perfectly ok. Nobody wants to have to have an abortion but contraception isn’t 100% effective. Also, presumably 98% is all cases without fatal foetal abnormality? Is mental health grounds simply the criteria necessary for elective abortion?

20% of pregancies are terminated. Abortion is consistently 99%+ effective. Mind the gap. All abortion is elective. Less than 2% are for serious foetal anomalies, most of which are not lethal. "Mental health grounds" is contrived nonsense in the absense of assessment.

If a woman were referred to as hysterical (womb), without any assessment of her mental health that would be appalling. How can someone have capacity to consent if they are deemed so obviously mentally ill they dont need formal asessment to prove it? Completely inconsistent.
