More details
196,082 terminations took place in England and Wales in 2011 (189,931 residents plus 6,151 visitors) 2,307 of these were carried out under ground E, handicap risk.
I (and others who sign this petition) call for an open debate and free vote in the house of commons to make termination illegal unless it's to save the woman's life.
