Concerns have been raised over the number of abortions being carried out because of minor disabilities.
The legal limit is 24 weeks - unless there's a risk the child may be disabled when born - in which case abortion is allowed 'up to birth'. It's argued many conditions such as club foot or cleft palate are 'treatable' after birth. In 2012, almost 2-thousand-7-hundred abortions took place on the grounds of disability.
MP Fiona Bruce tells Premier why SHE is trying to get the Government to change their abortion legislation.
A Monthly Gift Of $11 Makes A World Of Difference
In a world of fake news there’s never been a greater need for quality Christian journalism. Premier’s mission is to provide the Church with the most up to date and relevant news, told from a Christian perspective. But we can’t do it without you.
Unlike many websites we haven't put up a paywall — we want to keep our journalism free at the point of need and as open as we can. Premier’s news output takes a lot of time, money and hard work to produce. No one in the USA is sharing news like we are across radio, magazines and online so please help us to continue that today.
For a monthly gift of $11 or more we’d also be able to send you a free copy of the brand new Premier Bible, a wonderful Anglicised version of the NLT packed with exclusive bonus content, reading plan and resources to help you get the most out of scripture.
Your monthly support will make a world of difference. Thank you.
