"Gibraltar's political leaders have rejected calls to liberalize abortion.
Speaking to The Gibraltar Olive Press, a Government spokesman said: "The Cabinet has not considered changing this [abortion] policy."
In the British territory, abortion remains a crime under Section 162 of the 2011 Crimes Act of Gibraltar and carries with it the sentence of life imprisonment. That said no woman has been sentenced under this provision.
As reported by the Gibraltar Broadcasting Corporation, reacting to these moves to legalize abortion in the territory, the Pro-Life Movement says it will work and campaign to keep Gibraltar a "beacon of hope and justice" amidst what it calls the "industrialized destruction of children"." CP
But Jesus said, Suffer little children, and forbid them not,
to come unto me: for of such is the kingdom of heaven.
Matthew 19:14
