#StopStella Campaign

Stella Creasy has been working hard to make abortion a “human right”.

She wants to overturn sections 58 & 59 of the Offences Against the Person Act, which would:

1. Remove all legal protection from the unborn child up to 28 weeks
2. Allow abortions up to 28 weeks for any reason without any medical supervision

She has nearly achieved this in Northern Ireland and is planning to use the Domestic Abuse Bill (currently going through parliament) to do the same in the rest of the UK.

The kinds of abortions available without legal restrictions would be: 

• Sex-selective abortion
• DIY home abortions 
• Abortions through coercion
• Mail-order abortions
• Abortion pills given out in schools by school nurses
• Abortions carried out by healthcare assistants, nurses and pharmacists with no trained doctor present in the case of a complication

Other dangers include:

• No legal requirement for 2 doctors to sign for abortion
• Conscience clause - doctors and nurses could be forced to perform abortions or risk losing their job¹
• More difficult to secure convictions against third parties who have forced a woman to have an abortion²

Stella Creasy’s voting record also shows that:

• She voted against reforms to bring in independent abortion counselling in Sept 2011³
• She voted against an explicit ban on sex selection abortions in Feb  2015⁴
• She voted to decriminalise abortion up to birth across the UK in Dec 2018⁵
• She was the architect of legislation seeking to introduce abortion into Northern Ireland up to 28 weeks in Oct 2019⁶

1Diana Johnson’s abortion Bill states: “Subsections (1) and (2) of section 4 of the 1967 Act (conscientious objection to participation in treatment) are repealed” (Cf section 3) | 2Diana Johnson’s legislation would repeal sections 58 & 59 and then introduce new legislation for coercion. The way the law is framed is in regard to person A and B and leaves no scope for person C. (Cf section 2) | 3See source | 4See source| 5See source | 6See source and CEDAW recommendations

Offences Against the Person Act 1861:

1. Was designed to prevent offences against people. The person referred to in Sections 58 and 59 is the unborn child. This act is designed to protect lives
2. By repealing these sections, Stella Creasy is repeating what has been done throughout history - removing, by law, the right to personhood from specific people groups, based on race, religion, gender, and now - age

There is no demand for ‘removing all protections for the unborn child’: 

• Only 1% of the public support this extreme position⁷
• 70% of the British public want to see more protections in law for the unborn, not less⁷

7Summary of poll

Stella Creasy deliberately conceals in all her public statements and dialogue on abortion - the humanity of the unborn child and what an abortion procedure actually entails.

Yet when she is speaking about her own baby in her womb, and her previous miscarriages, she speaks openly on their humanity…

On her unborn child:

On her miscarriage:

“I tried not to think about the fact my baby had died inside me”

“I can’t even protect my own child”

On her pregnancy:

In a Parliamentary debate on abortion in Northern Ireland:

 “Sorry, baby brain has taken me”
