Uppity Incubators

In accordance with the ongoing Trumpsterisation of our Mother of Democracies, there has been a significant increase in the number of women investigated and prosecuted for undergoing abortions. In the two decades to 2022, there were three prosecutions of women for terminating pregnancies illegally; since 2022 there have been at least six, with corresponding growth in pestering, harassment and trauma. Mere experts at the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists have now weighed in, proclaiming that prosecutions for failing to birth new Britons are never in the public interest, and that healthcare staff are under no legal obligation to report such cases to the police. The Society for the Production of Unwanted Children objected that public trust in health workers would be undermined if health workers went around respecting patient confidentiality; while a government spokesbeing acknowledged the sensitivity of the issue and deemed it a fine excuse for not modernising the law. In the absence of a Vatican communiqué interpreting the will of the deified Blair upon the matter, His Majesty's Abortive Opposition seems not to have expressed an opinion.
