Rejected petition Enhance and protect the UK's most vulnerable group - the unborn
A person devotes their life to helping others. Like all of us, they started life at conception but the lack of protection in early development may have produced a very different outcome. Life is a gift - to all of us.
More details
The Government and Parliament is called to protect irs citizens of all ages. Thousands of lives (and their potential) are lost ever year through a legalised surgical process that stops an individuals potential from being realised. Individuals that could go on to make a positive contribution to our society - maybe a government advicer or researcher who finds cures for pandemics. Science is now showing that DNA is created from conception and so the arguments that supported the current legislation over when life begins are in need of a radical over view. If nothing else, the author of morality and life itself is in favour of its preservation in the womb, and will hold the great and the good and everyone else to account one day. Please be a voice for the innocents.
This petition was rejected
Why was this petition rejected?
It’s not clear what the petition is asking the UK Government or Parliament to do.
There are already restrictions on the circumstances under which a pregnancy can be terminated, particularly after 24 weeks: https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/abortion/. Many of these are clinical decisions for the NHS, not the UK Government or Parliament.
You could start a petition which spells out the specific changes you want to be made to the circumstances under which a pregnancy can be terminated, if that's what you want to happen.
You may also wish to sign this petition if you agree with it: https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/317434.
