UK eugenic abortion stats released – thousands killed for Downs, cleft lip, club foot, etc. | LifeSiteNews.com: After a five-year legal battle, ProLife Alliance succeeded in obtaining detailed statistics about eugenic abortions from the UK's Department of Health. In total, nearly 18,000 babies were aborted between 2002 and 2010 on the grounds of suspected disability. 1,189 were killed after the upper legal gestational age limit of 24 weeks. The figures show that these include 482 killed for Down’s syndrome in 2010 alone. In the same year, 181 abortions were attributed to musculoskeletal problems such as club foot, while 189 unborn children killed for anencephaly and 128 for spina bifida.
