Further protections for women’s rights in the UK

Petition Details

Introduce further protections for women’s rights in the UK, for example, enshrine the right to access an abortion into primary legislation to protect it from being changed in the future.

Additional Information

Because politicians like Nigel Farage have recently come out and started supporting abortion ban measures. This is in line with his support of Donald Trump, and this kind of foreign influence on British politics needs to be addressed and removed. It poses a direct threat to women in this country.

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.

We're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do.

Under the Abortion Act 1967, abortion is legal in England, Wales and Scotland up to the 24th week of pregnancy. The Abortion Act is primary legislation.

You can find more about the contents of the Abortion Act 1967 here: www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/1967/87/contents

You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do.
