The result is that the limit at which an abortion can no longer take place is extended from 12 to 18 weeks, the obligatory cooling-off period is cut from six days to two, and abortion is removed entirely from the criminal code.

Additionally, men who oppose the abortion of their woman are criminally prosecutable. Information about alternative methods in abortion centers are cancelled.

Marxists, social democrats, greens and some liberals support the new amendment to the abortion law. Some liberals, christian democrats, nationalists and far-right are against.

We would have the most progressive abortion law over the world if enacted.

It's 23 weeks and 6 days in Great Britain so it's not that 'liberal'. It should be removed from the criminal code. You'd have to explain what you mean by 'men are criminally prosecutable' though. It's not clear.
That's something the right claims. I'm not sure as well. Zinneke might know it better. I didn't know it was that liberal in GB. The right compares it to the progressive Netherlands where it's the only country where it's so liberal, and claims it's the most liberal abortion law proposed over the world.

I didn't fact-check.

Btw. I would vote in favour.

I get that; but why did you quote 'the right'; what right wing source did you use that could so blatantly make sh-t up that can be checked online in minutes? I'm curious Smiley
