Shock at abortion pill decision

This case highlights the pressing need for comprehensive abortion law reform. One in three women will have an abortion in her lifetime. It is our view that abortion is a normal part of healthcare and that everyone should have access to healthcare. Pills by post was a significant measure that reduced countless socio-economic barriers to abortion care during the pandemic. It has rightly been maintained because it reduced waiting times and has been rated well by patients.

UCU is a proud affiliate to Abortion Rights, the national pro-choice campaign. Access to free, safe, and legal abortion is crucial to women's economic, educational and social advancement. Barriers to reproductive rights are barriers to equality. The trade union movement has a proud history of advancing women's rights and defending reproductive choice whenever it has come under attack, and that must continue.

Let's unite our voices and demand justice and compassion for women's reproductive rights:
