Britain’s second-largest abortion provider is offering abortions to women based on a 20-second conversation with call centre workers, a Daily Mail investigation has claimed.
An undercover reporter called Marie Stopes and asked for an abortion, saying: “I just don’t want to have the baby.” The call centre worker replied: “That will come under ‘emotional reasons’”. The exchange took 22 seconds.
The law says that two doctors can approve an abortion if “the continuance of the pregnancy would involve risk, greater than if the pregnancy were terminated, of injury to the physical or mental health of the pregnant woman or any existing children of her family”.
