It probably will come back to bite them on the bum but hey ho, not a fan of the 7 month limit myself, I think that is very late for an abortion unless there is a medical reason

Yeah agree with that. I would have thought that abortions that late would only be done for medical emergencies though?

I would have thought so, though I am sure I heard on the news last night 28 weeks was the cut off, might be wrong though

My niece had a baby boy at 26 weeks, he only survived 6 hours, she then went on to have a baby girl at 26 weeks, mother and baby ended up on life support for a while, but story ended happily with both surviving, baby girl is now a very bright and happy dance champion.
Other than medical emergencies I would like the cut off below 24 weeks.

Yes I agree, if the baby can survive outside the womb then I think the cut off should be there (unless medical emergency obviously)
