About Abortion

Is there a more divisive, controversial, or (for many) painful issue than abortion?1 in 3 women in the UK has at least one abortion in her lifetime, and yet almost no-one is talking about it. If the subject ever is broached, it’s often not in the most helpful way: more heat than light; people talking past, at, or for each other, instead of to each other. It’s time for a proper conversation about abortion. Dave Brennan, together with a whole range of guests, helps us to think through this issue carefully and calmly, examining facts, experiences, and arguments from all sides.
