PERMISSION SLIP
On the 50th Anniversary of the
ABORTION ACT 1967
We, The Women’s Equality Party,
of Studio 18, Blue Lion Place, London SE1 4PU
and
Abortion is healthcare, not a crime.
Time It's Not A Crime
It’s been 50 years since the Abortion Act and women in England, Scotland and Wales still have to prove to two doctors that their pregnancy involves a bigger risk to their mental or physical health than having an abortion. The Act was never extended to Northern Ireland and terminations are only permitted if a woman's life or long-term health is at serious risk. We are not criminals. We don’t need permission to make decisions about our own bodies. We won’t submit to out-dated and unjust rules. No more asking nicely for approval from those who think they know what’s best for us.
Join the most important campaign for a generation. Give Amber Rudd your permission to change the law.
