Since abortion has been legalised under the 1967 Abortion Act, on average around one fifth of all pregnancies in the UK have ended in abortion. I believe that life begins at conception meaning that abortion is murder. Abortion is the process of removing the embryo or foetus from the uterus to end a pregnancy.

Ironically, authorities of state violate the fundamental rights of their people by choosing to edit the boundaries of freedom of expression itself. The fundamental thought that underlies the assumption…
