A reminder that #abortion is *not* legal in Great Britain & requires "nod and an wink" consent from 2 doctors - https://observer.co.uk/news/national/article/police-could-search-homes-and-seize-phones-after-sudden-pregnancy-loss - and that the Truss Cabinet had, for the first time since the 1970s, a majority of forced-birth advocates.
#UK folks may wish to write to their MP & suggest that Parliament do something about this state of affairs. I would be rather concerned with what an in-thrall-to-the-US Reform govt might do in 2029. Oh, and #ACAB of course.
