''Does the birth control pill cause abortions?" is a 115 page book in which Randy Acorn, using research results from medical literature, convincingly shows that the answer is 'yes'. He has, with care and compassion, given us the truth. The question for us as Christians is how we will respond now that we know.

Government Strategy Fails Again in Face of Teen Abortion Epidemic in the UK

The abortion rates amongst Brighton and Hove teenagers are the highest in the South East. Department of Health data for the area shows that an average of 24 per 1,000 girls aged between 15 and 17 had a termination last year. This is much higher than the regional average of 16 per 1,000 but falls short of the worst area in the UK, Lambeth, where there is a rate of 44 per 1,000.

Figures from Brighton and Hove City Primary Care Trust show that more than half of under-18 conceptions in recent years have ended in abortions. Brighton and Hove City Council agreed a target with the government for 2006/7 of a 20 per cent reduction in the number of conceptions among girls aged under 18 but was only able to secure a 5.7 per cent fall.

The LifeLeague says: Once again we see government policy failing miserably in this area. We suggest that you click here to contact your MP and remind them that ‘more of the same’ will not work if they are serious about helping young people. Morality, chastity and responsibility will work.

UK parliamentary committee to examine Abortion

  
 

The UK’s House of Commons Select Committee on Science and Technology has announced that it will conduct an inquiry into scientific developments relevant to the 1967 Abortion Act. The inquiry will not be concerned with the moral and ethical isses surrounding abortion, but with scientific evidence that has a bearing on the current legal limit for abortion (24 weeks’ gestation), the potential impact of relaxing current restrictions on early-stage (first trimester) abortions, and the beneficial or adverse health outcomes associated with abortion.

The LifeLeague says: We urge you to contact the following MPs, all of whom sit on the Commons Select Committee on Science and Technology. Urge them to consider the continuously building scientific data demonstrating the humanity and personhood of the unborn child. You can make use of LifeLeague’s brilliant online article addressing this very subject by clicking here.

Rise in abortions for Ulster women

  
 

The number of women from Northern Ireland going to England for abortions has risen for the first time in five years.

The LifeLeague says: Let this encourage our supporters in Ulster to step up activities to educate society about the horrors and immorality of abortion from the grassroots up. Please click here to contact Ulster's Health Minister Chris McGimpsey and ask him what measures he will implement to stop this. Enough innocent blood has been shed in that land, a land that has suffered enough.

The girl of 18 who has had SIX abortions

  
 

A record 18,619 under-18s had abortions last year - despite a multimillion-pound Government campaign to bring down the numbers. One 18-year-old had her sixth abortion in 2006. Another 135 girls under 14 terminated their pregnancies.
The statistics - released by the Department of Health after a freedom of information request - show the number of teenage abortions has increased by more than 2,500 each year since Labour came to power.

The LifeLeague says: Information like this serves to bring home the full horror and reality of abortion, as well as the utter failure of government policy. The pro-life community in this land still have a lot of work and battling ahead of them. Only faith in God and hard work linked to a robust strategy will suffice. The prize is worth fighting for – the youth and babies of our nation.
