Even with a publicly funded NHS and supportive health care professionals, abortions are terrifying. 🧵 #RoeVsWade First you have to confirm the pregnancy with your GP, who will refer you to the maternity hospital. This can take a while, back in the late 2000s it was a few weeks.

Keir Starmer correctly pointed out this fundamental misunderstanding and he was right.
