This is about women's rights and choices. Its not, and never should be a political issue.Its a personal one.Every women has the right to choose whether to terminate or to go through with a pregnancy.
The question we should be asking is why women who choose to have children are been punished for doing so when it comes to top ranking jobs.They are less able to take on working longer hours therefore missing out on top jobs.The divide also leaves women with a longer working day, despite earning less, The average working week for a woman in Europe is 68 hours, including paid and domestic work - longer than the average of 55 hours for a man in full-time employment. So either way women seem to lose out , if they abort or if they have their child.At the end of the day it still boils down to the same thing its a woman's right issue.

You really are an idiot. Look, your issue is not the government letting doctors perform abortions... your issue is abortion fullstop. You obviously abhore the idea of women having a choice as to what to do with their bodies and now are using this news as an excuse to rant.
As someone else here stated, what will you ever know about the pain of making the decision whether or not to terminate a pregnancy. I bet you're one of these preachers who thinks that women make this decision lightly... what about the woman who had a one-night stand and who has no money/home/car/partner to help to bring up a child; what about the woman who is in a destructive relationship - whose partner abuses her either mentally or physically or both; what about the woman who is raped - either by a stranger or by someone she knows; what about the woman who, for whatever reason, decides that now is not the right time to bring a baby into this world and that maybe some time in the future would be better?
I firmly believe that every baby born should be a baby who is wanted, loved and will be cared for. Contraception does fail, people also just make mistakes - why should they have to pay for it forever. If the government is going to make this harrowing experience a little bit easier for women then I'm all for it.
And believe me, abortion is NOT an easy decision to make.
Now, just go somewhere else and get off your high horse.

I think you are talking bollocks.....who are you to intervene in a ladies, or couples decision whether to have a child or not. Get off you soap box and come into the real world. Some people take a decision because they ar enot in a position to raise a child. Or it could have been mistake, or it could have been rape. What ever the reason for pregnancy , it is the right of the mother to decide with her partner what to do. AND not the right of outsiders who do not understand their termoil to cast alliusions. People such as the catholic church have a lot to answer for....they put down and scare decent people regarding abortion and contraception instead of guiding them through difficulties, casting them from the flock. These are the same people who hide and keep safe child molesting priests for years then obstruct the justice system, the same people who in ireland would hear a confession of a murderer of a decent father , and not tell the police. So no I do not think it is immoral of the government, but rather you are immoral for interfering and judging people .......

I'm sorry, perhaps I'm against the majority again but we do believe in free speech. You have just been raped, would you like to bear his child. You are young and stupid you meet a boy, do you want a 14 year old to be lumbered with a child which she cannot afford to bring up anyway. There is now this new drug, you wouldn't even know who the father is. You have six or seven children, and you conceive again, you cannot afford to keep the children you have already. Why make eight suffer. Give people the right to make up their own mind. What right have you to dictate what other should do. being horridable which I'm not, would you deny calling them Mohamed. I'm sorry if it happened to you ????

There are arund 1.5million Britons who go to church out of a population of £60m which is around 4%.
Why should such a small minority of Christians who base theri faith on a book written 2,000 years ago and badly translated influence policy?
I do not belive in your book and neither does the majority of the UK, so keep your beliefs out of our laws.
You want to talk about morals? How about the churchs stance on contraception which results in thousands of deaths each year in Africa due to overpopulation and AIDS?

This is a very touchy subject, and one that can only be made by each individual, it provokes very strong reactions, it's not a choice that YOU would make, but every woman has a right to make their own choice in this matter, and really it is not up to you or me to decide what other people do with their lives

i don't think you have any right to comment on a women's choice for an abortion.
you are a guy and will never know, understand or experience the traumatic experience of being pregnant!
if you did get someone preg all you will have to do is dump the girl, leave her on her own and go with someone else... for the women she will have to deal with the experience of getting preg, having the baby or an abortion for the rest of her life!

Are you in the God-fearing brainwashed 'I'll accept inferior treatment and laughableness in my leadership now because I was taught that after I die it's all wonderful' camp, or the 'God-fearing I'd like to know why that is' camp? Either way, I'll bet that you are male and from a small town.

Abortion is a woman's choice.
It's only murder if you are religious and fearing of a God who doesn't seem to exist and if he does is doing very little to help us.
Additional: Marky makes an excellent point about contraception and the spread of AIDS. Well done my friend.
