Equality of life
Ms Henderson says amending the Abortion Act “will not advance women’s equality one bit”. How are we going to attain true equality when one entire class of the human race continues to be denied the fundamental and basic right to life?
A group which is violently killed on a massive scale every single day around the world? Many will say that abortion must always remain a “choice” but we must ask the all-important question: “What choice are we talking about?”

All laws impose a moral viewpoint and restrict the individual’s behaviour. When others’ rights are at stake – and particularly when their very lives are at stake – any decent society must restrict the individual’s freedom of choice.
Is an innocent human damaged by a woman’s choice to have an abortion? If not, no problem. If so, it is a major problem that society cannot afford to ignore. Any law that prohibits the fatal victimisation of another person is by nature a just law.
For the sake of humanity and true equality, let’s not give up on the unborn.
