Take down the petition asking to remove abortions from the NHS

Rejected 13 signatures

What the petition asks

It's a daft petition. I do not feel taking away women's rights to an abortion is a good use of this website.

The petition in question is here:
Remove Abortions From The NHS

Why it was rejected

It was not clear what the petition asked the UK Government or Parliament to do.

We can only remove petitions that don't comply with the petitions standards.
