So a bunch of senior police officers got together to decide how to interpret the law, perhaps the government should make the law clearer.

I dont really know if the govt fiddling with the law is a good idea. It works for the most part. Ofc there are some problems, and people fall through the holes. But we should be increasing access and support to maternity care, including loss and abortion, not criminalising it. 1/

I do wonder where this has come from however... there was a very definite stance on the UK not following the US lead when roe v wade was overturned, and with the fall out from that. Very worrying indeed.

US anti abortion groups have turned their attention to the UK.

The same Tufton street 'think tanks' are in tandem with the American ones, like The Heritage Foundation, hence the likes of Truss speaking at their meetings in America. They are currently trying to form a British CPAC to align all the various far right factions. They want to ban abortion.

Hopefully our civil society will be strong enough to resist this.

Absolute madness!!!

I'm just a geezer, and wouldn't have a clue but, I think the last thing a person who's been through horrific trauma needs is more trauma.

Yep
