Diverting British overseas aid to pro-life agencies and programmes 9. Ensuring effective curbs on violence and pornography in the media 10. Introducing effective curbs on the abuse of animals and the environment. The Pro life Alliance affirms that readily available abortion leads to increased exploitation of women, not their 'liberation'. Women often find themselves under pressure to have an abortion because of the demands of partners, families, friends or society.
Abortion violates the dignity and integrity of women, leaving a trail of anger.
At the time of the 1967 Abortion Act much play was made of the prevalence of backstreet abortions and often grossly exaggerated figures wore presented. The Pro life Alliance believes that in the truly just and caring society which we seek to create, 'abortionism' will cease to be an alternative which any decent person will want to consider and that, even if it proves true that abortion can never be entirely eliminated, this is no reason for legalising it. What is immoral does not cease to be immoral by becoming state-controlled. Abortion is often recommended in cases of rape. The Pro life Alliance argues that abortion compounds violence with violence, that it is an unjust response to a complex problem, and that abortion only deepening the trauma of the victim as well as taking the innocent life of her child.
