Contributing sentiments towards policy:

53% : For those of us who recognise that the legalisation of abortion was a grave disservice to women, as well of course as being the death knell for vast numbers of preborn children, this is something to be greatly celebrated.
50% : After abortion was legalised in 1973 there was a sharp rise in abortion figures, reaching a peak in the 1980s/early 1990s, yet over recent decades there has been a steady decline (although pills obtained outside clinical settings are not included in reported statistics).
48% : She said 'If abortion had been illegal I would never have had an abortion and my children would still be here with me today'.
48% : The law also prevents men from shirking their responsibilities of fatherhood and pushes societies and governments to confront the inadequacies there are in social care for those who are pregnant or struggling with children.
45% : Figures for abortions obtained in physician offices, hospitals, abortion clinics and other clinics have all decreased and this poses an important question for those of us in the UK: Why?Clearly there are many factors to consider with a question of this magnitude but I think a strong contender is that Americans have made abortion a talking point both on the streets and in politics.
43% : Roe v Wade, which happened in 1973, legalised abortion through all three trimesters.
43% : Many people are now aware that Norma McCorvey, better known as Jane Roe, (the plaintiff or claimant in the landmark 1973 case) never actually had an abortion but the law that bore her name opened the floodgates to millions of US babies having their lives legally terminated and to millions of US women being sold the lie that abortion was the answer to their difficult pregnancy.
42% : The law offers a last protection for any children who aren't yet recognised as such by their parents, it offers a last protection for any women who are tempted to think that abortion is somehow a solution to their problems.
42% : It's easy to think we have a perfect rational argument for why abortion is wrong but if we aren't presenting our case in a way that connects with someone's emotions too then we can sound insensitive or discompassionate.
36% : That's why campaigning politically, whilst vitally important, can never be a stand-alone method for defeating abortion.
36% : Many people have an opinion on abortion in the UK but it's questionable whether a comparable amount of the population have really thought the issue through with all the facts, figures and emotional engagement needed to make an informed decision.
32% : We don't want abortion to become illegal as much as we want it to be unthinkable and paradoxically what we need to do for it to become unthinkable is to get people to think about it.
30% : We are sometimes told that illegalising abortion will just push it underground
