New calls for buffer zones around UK abortion clinics.
Medical leaders in the UK have launched a fresh call for buffer zones to be set up around abortion clinics to prevent activists targeting patients and staff.
The UK's first so-called buffer zone was set up outside an abortion clinic in the London borough of Ealing in 2018.The FSRH represents more than 14,000 UK doctors, Anti-abortion campaigners described their gatherings outside abortion clinics as prayer vigils meant to offer support and said that rolling out buffer zones would "criminalise prayer".The British Pregnancy Advisory Service said 50 new clinics had been targeted by protesters in England and Wales since 2018.
The idea of buffer zones for England and Wales was rejected by the government in 2018, following a review.
