Abortion has been a non-issue in the UK for years, and I am very surprised to see this being raised.
I wonder if the future demographics stuff has influenced the Government.

Viewpoints: Abortion
The abortion debate has been reignited in the UK by revolutionary ultrasound scans showing pictures of a 12 week-old fetus seemingly walking in the womb.
There have been calls for the legal time limit for abortions to be reduced from 24 to 12 weeks and Prime Minister Tony Blair has hinted that the law may be re-examined.
We asked six commentators for their views on abortion and the possibility of a change in the law. Please use the form at the bottom of the page to tell us what you think.
