Christian Concern and other pro-life groups have expressed dismay
as new statistics were released today, demonstrating a rise in abortions in
England and Wales.
The Department of Health statistics show that 185,824 abortions
were carried out in England and Wales, a 0.7% increase from 2014. Whilst the
percentage of abortions for women under 30 decreased slightly, it has risen for
women over 30.
The breakdown of the statistics also revealed that there has been
a rise in repeat abortions and abortions on the basis of
disability.
