Make Abortions in Northern Ireland Legal
http://www.newstatesman.com/uk-politics/2013/09/when-will-abortion-become-legal-women-northern-ireland
Abortions are currently illegal in Northern Ireland and getting an abortion in Britain is, not only not covered by the NHS but, would also result in arrest once the person getting the abortion returns to Northern Ireland. (as an abortion, over here, is a crime under the Offences against the Person Act 1861)
“People presume that you can legally obtain an abortion in Northern Ireland in cases of rape and incest – you can’t.”
