Call it emotive if you like, but when you have an abortion, you are actually killing a baby.. To my mind, an abortion in the early weeks of pregnancy is one thing, but at 24 weeks of pregnancy it is fully formed and is clearly a baby. The criteria used is wrong - it shouldn't be based on viability outside the womb, it should be based on the baby's consciousness and ability to feel pain.

The stories of aborted babies struggling to breathe being left on a slab for hours to die are heartbreaking. Not very civilised, if you ask me.
Again you are painting a deliberately emotive and distorted picture of what was voted for, as Hugh pointed out.

Do you not think, as you believe for a far less decisive Brexit vote, that the "losers" should shut up and buy into the winning decision?
