Others have scaremongered about what this bill will permit. We had the phrase "abortion on demand", and I share the horror of the spectre of medical professionals carrying out abortions on a late-term fetus because a woman wakes up one day and says she doesn't want a baby. That is ridiculous. It demeans women and it demeans medical professionals, because it does not reflect the reality of the circumstances in which a woman with a wanted pregnancy in late term is forced to have an abortion.
