Pro-life groups have urged the government to scrap its “horrific” DIY home abortion policy as official data shows a 17 percent surge in the number of abortions carried out in England and Wales.
According to the latest figures from the Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC), 123,219 abortions were carried out between January and June 2022, up from 105,488 over the same period in 2021.
