A trigger law passed in 2021 would go into effect, banning abortion at any stage. There is an exception for medical emergencies to save the mother’s life. There are no exceptions for rape or incest. Anyone who performs abortions could face up to life in prison and fines, but patients themselves would be exempted from prosecution.

Abortion in the United Kingdom is legally available through the Abortion Act 1967 in Great Britain, and the Abortion (Northern Ireland) (No.2) Regulations 2020.
In England, Scotland, and Wales, abortion is permitted on the grounds of:

• risk to the life of the pregnant woman;
• preventing grave permanent injury to her physical or mental health;
• risk of injury to the physical or mental health of the pregnant woman or any existing children of her family (up to a term limit of 24 weeks of gestation); or
• substantial risk that, if the child were born, he or she would "suffer from such physical or mental abnormalities as to be seriously handicapped".

And the effect was to allow abortion on demand, on the bogus grounds of the woman being suicidal. A cleft palate was considered a serious handicap. They always find a way to selectively dodge the law.
