Under this sinister change, an abortion is less serious than a bunion

UNDER the pretext of the coronavirus lockdown, abortion campaigners have taken the opportunity to lobby the Government to change substantially the rules around abortion pills, reported on TCW here. This is something they have been wanting to do for years, as this blog explains.

This week, they have been successful in their campaign. Now women will be able to take two powerful drugs, the abortion pills mifepristone and misoprostol, at home in the first ten weeks of pregnancy.

Previously women had to be given mifepristone (this kills the foetus) at a clinic or hospital by a registered medical professional. Up to 48 hours later they would be administered misoprostol, which they could take at the clinic or (since 2018) at home.

Now, to the delight of the abortion lobby, the pill manufacturers and abortionists, the Government have also removed any requirement for one (no longer is it even two) registered medical practitioner  actually to see or even talk to a woman. Instead ‘consultations’ can take place by video, telephone or ‘other electronic means’.

Perhaps the abortion lobby persuaded the Government that using telemedicine is the way to go, since many more GP surgeries are introducing it. However the use of the vague term ‘other electronic means’ does not just mean that consultations must take place only by video or Facetime or even telephone calls: there is nothing to stop it including ‘consultation’ by email or texts.
