No it is a completely legal action if carried out within the time frames and for the reasons allowed.

http://www.statutelaw.gov.uk/content...tDocId=1181037

Its covered by the Abortion Act 1967 and the Human Fertilisation and Embryology Act. The second act states "an abortion is no longer legal after 24 weeks except....."

Kind of points to the fact abortions are legal within certain limits

Thats why it was brought onto statute.
