Closed Make displaying graphic images, such as abortion, illegal in public.

Closed on

So it's bank holiday Monday, thousands of children are out with their parents exploring Albertopolis. My friends and I have just finished our day in college and leave the building to be greeted with a huge, disturbing and gory image of a mangled fetus right outside the Royal Albert Hall.

Thousands of children will walk past these indecent images, without warning, which could traumatise and upset. No one should be subject to this emotional distress without prior warning, especially when images such as these would be rated 15/18 in a cinema. This is why I believe showing graphic content in public should be made illegal.
