Abortion... Lest we forget! 1967-2007 Forty Terrible Years PDF Print E-mail

Oct 31, 2007

The Alive and Kicking campaign issued the following press release today:

On the 27 October, 1967, the Abortion Act was officially passed in the UK Parliament. As Big Ben struck midnight it was the beginning of a day which marks the 40th Anniversary of this Act, an Act which has resulted in the loss of 6.7 million unborn lives, a figure which is rapidly approaching the total figure of the population of London.

An alliance of pro-life groups, united under the name ‘Alive&Kicking’, commemorated this tragic moment by projecting onto the House of Parliament, beside Big Ben, a reminder to the world of the appalling death toll of this Act of Parliament.

This afternoon thousands gathered outside the House of Parliament to call for a change in law.
